Project History
This repository is forked from Ligaturizer@daa4dc8b on 26 Jan 2020.
At that moment, Ligaturizer was not able to build latest Hack 3.003 font. I submitted a pull request to fix that issue.
However,
- Too many fonts =>
- Too difficult for me to manually check all the output fonts' correctness.
- Too difficult to generalize automatic release phases
- No container for development
- Explore more ligatures styling
