    Nice work! It's a tweaked version of Roboto, right? Appears like some of the glyphs went unchanged in form, for example: ordfeminine, nine superior, etc. Any plans to make the entire glyph set consistent?

    Edit: realized OP is not creator

      Nope, not the creator, but I'd love for Rasmus to tell us a bit more about the font.

      The project uses fontbuild, a subproject of Roboto, for parts of the build system. Some glyph outlines from Roboto are also used for placeholder glyphs — glyphs that hasn't been designed yet, to allow using the font even when some glyphs are "missing." (Proper attribution has been given in src/LICENSE for some glyph outlines.txt)

      The plan is to eventually "implement" all glyphs and not need any "placeholder" glyph outlines from Roboto. However, getting there might take a year or so.
