Build harfbuzz with experimental features by default? #140

Closed behdad closed 1 year ago

A suggestion.

behdad commented 1 year ago

The rationale being that uharfbuzz is mostly used by cutting-edge tools like FontGoggles and Crowbar, and those can use demoing the experimental features in harfbuzz most.

I though we do this already. Probably we stopped doing this when hb-draw became stable, fine by me especially for features that does not affect the Python API.

behdad commented 1 year ago

I think you're right.

No objections from me

khaledhosny commented 1 year ago

We still build with it indeed: https://github.com/harfbuzz/uharfbuzz/blob/b7a809ddedd138622ccb2d9c573a64528a16eb67/setup.py#L16

Or may be you meant some other define?

That's all I meant. All good. Thanks.
