fonts for constructed scripts

i have created a lot of writing systems for different purposes. i thought it would be cool to use them on a computer. so this repo is for storing the sources of fonts for these scripts.

note: my scripts are weird, fonts for them might be even more weird, use on your own risk.

building fonts

i draw font's glyphs in inkscape, tweak glyph spacings in fontforge, then compile using fontmake.

install fontmake in it's dedicated venv, along with required dependencies

$ python -m venv fontmake-venv
$ . fontmake-venv/bin/activate
$ pip install fontmake brotli

to build a font, navigate to its directory and run make. otf and woff2 files will be in output directory.
