# fntbld-oci

A Debian-based container image with font-building tools pre-installed:

- **FontForge** — scriptable font editor
- **ttfautohint** — auto-hinter for TrueType fonts
- **fontTools** — Python library for manipulating font files

The image contains no project-specific files. Mount or clone your font project into `/build` at runtime.
