Remmen GSUB Demo

This repository is a companion material for a series of my articles (#1, #2 and #3) published onto Zenn, which illustrate how to design and implement a Japanse remmen-tai (connected script) font using contextual substitution techniques.

Download the latest version of the demo font from here. The font is based on BIZ UD Mincho Medium hosted on GitHub as part of the Google Fonts library.

このリポジトリは、Zenn の記事『フォントでつながった文字を表現する』（#1, #2, #3）の関連資料です。GSUB を活用した連綿体フォントの設計と実装のデモです。

デモフォントの最新版はこちらからダウンロードできます。このフォントは BIZ UD Mincho Medium をベースにしており、派生元フォントは Google Fonts ライブラリの一部として GitHub から取得できます。

Building

If you want to build fonts manually on your own computer:

• cd sources && sh ./build.sh will produce a font file using your local Python environment. Note that you should pip install afdko=4.0.0 before production.
• sh ./build_font.sh will produce a font file using docker, which automatically set up development environment in a docker image and produce a font file.
