Hello guys, im Daniel, a graphic designer from Portugal ending my master degree about manipulation of variable fonts to produce kinetic typography experiments.
Im creating this topic because my main ideia is to create a web system where the user can manipulate a variable font (that i created) and add some graphic elements (circles… generative elements etc…)
Since until now in p5.js the only way to add a variable font is through DOM elements, not on canvas, how on earth will i be able to add generative elements to a variable font ?
Hope you can help me!

Hey! The problem that i see is that opentype.js doesn’t support variable fonts… but yesterday i found a library called variablefont.js (https://github.com/Monotype/variableFont.js)
I haven’t tried it yet!
