otf-fea-rs indeed looks interesting. I am planing to design the Informa architecture such that multiple OpenType layout feature backends can be used, from AFDKO (like otf-fea-rs), to FEE, to Glyphs’s AFDKO extensions, or any other feature code compiler.

FEE is nice, but would add a Python dependency to this project. Thats why a Rust implementation of .fea is a great match and a good starting point.

Thank you for considering and helping me in such an early-stage project like this!
