Free software vector drawing application Inkscape supports these spiro curves in its UI. It is an option you can select for the curves and lines drawing tool.

- jacobolus 11y agoYeah. Unfortunately I found Inkscape’s support for them kinda hacky and buggy: it’s clearly a bolted-on afterthought rather than a core part of the design. It also doesn’t support the full set of UI ideas from Levien’s thesis. But even so, it’s certainly a nice feature to have. Even with some interaction glitches, it’s still in many cases nicer to use than Bézier curves.
- taejo 11y agoFontForge's support for them is better in this regard, IMO.
