Why did I make FontGet?

It started out as a way for me to re-install fonts everytime I reinstal my computer or get a new machine. As a graphic designer it's a pain to have to reload all my fonts and keep track of everything. with fontGet I can just run fontget import, or a custom script and have all my font's reloaded. I've recently been assisting with deploying machines at my workplace and we always fonts loaded onto the machines before they were deployed to new users and so I kind of made fontget to help solve this as well for deploying fonts to a heap of machines via scripting.

I've also been getting into ricing linux and windows systems which always require different fonts so I wanted something that was light weight, cross platform and based in the terminal to quickly download the font I need. What started as a concept powershell script, expanded into a fully fledged Go project to support not just Windows but also Mac OS and Linux. From there I just kinda fell in love with the project and added all the features that I (and maybe others) could want.

Where does it go from here?

Honestly apart from some bug fixes and checking some things cross platform I don't think there are any features that I would want to add. There are a number of things that may not work 100% so I want to spend what spare time I have just improving the codebase and fixing up any little bugs that I've missed. Anyway this is my story. I hope you like it and please enjoy using FontGet!
