A dreamy view of what working in Fontra Hive feels like: one font, the whole team, live. Same font, same glyph at the same time, branches that merge back, every version kept, comments on the glyph. https://t.co/gMB8Z6URrC
Feedback where it belongs: on the glyph. Pin a note on the exact spot, circle it with the red pen. Your colleagues see it in place and can react.

Fontra Hive is about people working together, not files moving around.
The freelancer in for three weeks of Cyrillic. The client who wants to see where the display cut is going. The art director who signs it off.
Nobody has to think about versions either. Every change is already a commit under the name of whoever made it.
Open a glyph, step back through its history, watch it redraw — and bring back any state you want.
Fontra runs in your browser, now with nothing to install.
Create from scratch, or open your own .glyphs, UFO or designspace, any script, and export a TTF built by fontc.
Team features (history, branches, comments on the glyph) come with Fontra Hive accounts, opening very soon.
