Components

Fontspector is made up of multiple crates:

• fontbakery-bridge: Allows Python fontbakery checks to run inside fontspector
• fontspector-checkapi: Defines the API and utility functions for check implementations
• fontspector-checkhelper: Procedural macros to facilitate check implementations
• fontspector-cli: The main fontspector executable
• fontspector-py: A Python module exposing fontspector (for which see below)
• fontspector-web: A WASM implementation of fontspector (for which see below)
• profile-testplugin: An example of a runtime-loadable test profile
• profile-googlefonts, profile-opentype, profile-universal: Built in profiles and their check implementations
• profile-microsoft, profile-adobe, ...: Additional profiles which are loaded at runtime (see below)

Building the web version

Fontspector also has a WASM-based web version at https://fonttools.github.io/fontspector/

It is built and deployed from Github Actions, but should you need to rebuild this manually for development, run:

cd fontspector-web
wasm-pack build
cd www; npm install; npm run build

The results appear in ../docs/.
