The new Google Fonts: find what youโre looking for
The tool parent and sibling comment listed allows you to do basic subsetting [1], and generates the formats you need. If you do this more often, it is of course useful to learn how to do this yourself. A commonly used tool is pyftsubset, part of fonttools [2]

How to properly rescale SVG files for using in OTF-SVG files?
I know fontforge doesn't support OTF-SVG, but I'm actually using it for creating OTF-SVG from scratch. Is anyone willing to help me with this issue? https://github.com/fonttools/fonttools/discussions/3229

Retro Pixel Font - A new font and the intro of how to make it
In short, I draw glyphs in png and use python to build fonts (by https://github.com/fonttools/fonttools ). I agreed on some rules and then everything became simple. No required professional font editer.

Is there a font manager that lets you display/search for fonts that use OpenType features (smcp, etc.)?
If you have FontTools successfully installed, there is also a bundled script that's similar to what justinpenner's code does, without the built-in directories; you can find it at https://github.com/fonttools/fonttools/blob/main/Snippets/layout-features.py
- I created a language for font design using FontForge

Self-Hosting Fonts - No more excuses
What I like the most is that you can also download google-fonts and convert them automatically. Webfont-Kit-Generator uses fonttools (written in Python), that's pretty cool too.

How much do custom fonts affect an app size?
A drawback to icon fonts is that by default, you are carrying all of the glyphs in an icon font along for the ride. You can mitigate that by using a tool like fonttools to strip out the unused font glyphs.

Variable TTF Fonts with Three Axes in one file - Wght, wdth, and ital
If you're interested in learning more about how variable fonts work, I can point you to all sorts of tools and other resources. For example, fontTools includes a command line tool called ttx that converts any standard font format (ttf/otf/ttc/otc/woff/woff2) to a human-readable XML text file. You can also inspect variable and static fonts easily with online tools like Wakamai Fondue and Samsa.

Montserrat cyrillic issues?
If you want to look inside a font file, you can use the ttx command line tool (included with fontTools) to convert binary fonts to human-readable XML format. You can also open them in a font editor like FontForge or Glyphs if you want a GUI, but font editors may not show you everything that's inside the file.

How I reduced Raveberry's transferred frontend code by 90%
Analyzing these dependencies, I found that some of them could be reduced or replaced. For example, jquery-ui is used for autocompletion and reordering. All additional widgets provided by jquery-ui (e.g. sliders, datepickers) are dead weight and can be excluded from the final bundle. Another example is marked, which was used to render the changelog. However, the changelog has a very simple structure and does not require a ~300KB library to be parsed. So instead, I use snarkdown, a lightweight alternative which is fully sufficient for this application.

Making Nested Comments - Building a Real-Time Commenting System in React [Part 2/3]
I wanted to add markdown support because I like to make comments readable and walls of text are not great for that, but I didn't want anything too heavy or complicated for the end user. I ended up using a library called snarkdown. I simply copy-pasted the source code in my project under lib/snarkdown.js to remove support for images and headings because we don't need that.
What are some alternatives?
fonttools-opentype-feature-freezer - OTFeatureFreezer GUI app and pyftfeatfreeze commandline tool in Python to permanently "apply" OpenType features to fonts, by remapping their Unicode assignments
marked - A markdown parser and compiler. Built for speed.
google-webfonts-helper - A Hassle-Free Way to Self-Host Google Fonts. Get eot, ttf, svg, woff and woff2 files + CSS snippets
purgecss - Remove unused CSS
woff2
berry - ๐ฆ๐ Active development trunk for Yarn โ
raveberry - A multi-user music server with a focus on participation
npm
webpack - A bundler for javascript and friends. Packs many modules into a few bundled assets. Code Splitting allows for loading parts of the application on demand. Through "loaders", modules can be CommonJs, AMD, ES6 modules, CSS, Images, JSON, Coffeescript, LESS, ... and your custom stuff.
