This is amazing. It's a variable font which uses interpolation math way beyond what the format was designed for. Well done, @underware! Bello Write is a true game changer. xitter.cf/underware/status/10522…

This is how Georgian websites look like after the update by @googlechrome. It is great that @unicode already supports Mtavruli letters in the 11.0 version, but @google @apple and @microsoft should understand that system fonts need to be updated as well. @srl295 @Evertype

[css-inline] better name for initial-letters property · Issue #2950 · w3c/csswg-drafts

People have been confused that the initial-letters property sounds more like a selector than a property that changes the rendering of text. Let the bikeshedding begin! Some possibilities: lettrine ...
