Inkvar, a new font editor we're developing

danielquisek

Hi all,

I wanted to share something we've been working on: Inkvar, a new font editor for type designers.

It's still in development, so we'd love to hear what you think. Tell us what you'd want from a new editor, which parts of your current workflow annoy you most, and anything that catches your eye on the site.

Thanks,
Daniel

Let me turn the question around: What does Inkvar set out to do that other font editors do not? Which parts of your current workflow annoyed you enough to commit to developing Inkvar?

It seems you plan to release this as proprietary software. How do you see this competing with both well established proprietary editors (GlyphsApp, Fontlab, RoboFont, FontCreator, etc) and other new editors (Fontra, Counterpunch, Runebender, ShiftApp, etc) that are libre software?
