      hello @michelangelo, to create a variable font you’ll need at least two compatible UFO masters and a .designspace file. see I Can Variable Font for instructions on generating variable fonts from UFOs using fontmake. you might also want to check pages tagged with interpolation and variable fonts in the RoboFont documentation. hope this helps… good luck!

      Hoi I’m using OS 10.13.6, Drawbot says ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'helper_functions' ––– ah, sorry, I just saw that there’s an extra file with the helper functions.

      @hzinn not sure how best to improve this more frames and higher resolution might be a start and maybe adding a background.
