Hi,
I often give type workshops where we design a typeface collectively. It’s not easy to merge, in the final stage, all the actions that are made her and there: that’s why I thought about an extension for collective work.
- First of all, we would work on a UFO file shared on Github
it could work like this: - when I launch the extension, I enter my name or pseudo
- each glyph has a label, showing who’s authorized to work on it
- yo can see all the glyphs in the font, display it, but only edit the ones you’re authorized to. This, not to ruin your neighbor’s work.
- a refresh button load the latest version committed.
This way, we could work together on the same file, quickly and easily. Could be useful in a professional context as well.
What do you think about it? Sounds possible?
All the best,
Thomas
