Contribution guide

Open astrolemonade opened this issue 2 years ago • 1 comments

Hey! I would like to contribute to this font since I like it a lot and use it in my text editors. Can you link some resources where one can learn how to keep the style of a font and also implement new glyphs? Thank you!

I use font creator to make font and use ttx tool to make it open source.

thanks for your love, but currently this project is just one of my hobbies and lacks engineering project structure. More time and knowledges are needed to make it easier for contribution. I will have very little free time in the near future, so the guide may won't be added in the short term.

I haven't seen a good example of "how to contribute" among all popular open source font projects. Indeed, it is hard to collaborate, especially you need to buy an expensive font editor like FontLab or Glyphs (I shamefully use a cracked version of FontLab on Windows). FontForge is not suitable for me to create and maintain a font, because it lacks a lot of powerful utils and I am not a professional designer.
