B612 Font Family
Even the font's designers were unable to contribute due to a lack of merge rights, since they weren't elected by the Eclipse foundation. https://github.com/polarsys/b612/issues/10#issuecomment-4719...
The only user who's demonstrated merge rights on the repo is the repo's Eclipse Foundation project lead, Laurent Spaggiari: https://projects.eclipse.org/content/laurent-spaggiari-proje...
Who's the only listed contributor on the repo: https://github.com/polarsys/b612/blob/master/CONTRIBUTORS.tx...
And who's been publicly inactive on GitHub since the repo's last merge in March 2019: https://github.com/LaurentSpaggiari?tab=overview&from=2019-0...
I don't think any amount of tooling knowledge could facilitate a contribution at this point. It's a dead project. The best anyone could do is apply the steps in issue #24 to a fork and start promoting it.

Turning on font "smart kerning" or "texture healing" in Emacs
Apparently "smart kerning" uses the ligatures mechanism. I use Mickey Peterson's ligature.el package for ligatures support. To get the smart kerning to work I added more ligatures by hand using this package. For example the website shows the effect when you type "Moi": the "o" will shift a bit away from the "M" when you type the "i". To get that to work I added a "Moi" ligature:

Replacing => with unicode right arrow
It sounds like you might want ligatures? I use ligature.el but it only works on emacs version 28+.

Unable to display ligatures in Emacs
I'm using use-package as my package manager and the package ligature for the ligatures.

Newbie here, how do I add ligatures to Emacs?
https://github.com/mickeynp/ligature.el will do it, but there are specific emacs version requirements and you have to enumerate all of the possible ligatures in your config. They have some examples of configuration for various popular programming ligature fonts.

What is then name of this theme?
Version 28 finally includes a necessary patch that has freed up ligatures. ligature.el seems to be the winning implementation.

> Is that the only way, or is there a way to disable ligatures but keep the rest of the font?
It's actually not that easy to use them with for example Emacs where you have to list every combination that you want to 'translate' to a ligature:

Confusion over faces vs overlays
ligatures are when multiple characters appear to combine into a single character ej, => transforms to arrow. emacs version and font used must support this to use it. GitHub - mickeynp/ligature.el: Display typographical ligatures in Emacs
