<p>Typography is a complex topic, and there are there are plenty of ways that a digital font can malfunction. Font Bakery aspires to become the ultimate font checking tool. To reach that goal, the project is structured as a collaborative compilation of font engineering knowledge and best practices.</p>
<p>This talk will discuss the challenges in gathering font engineering knowledge, and compiling it in a manner that is both effective for the implementation of automated quality checks, and simple and easy to grasp for type designers. We'll also share insights into git-based workflows for the development of libre fonts.</p></div>
