- YoshiRulz 3y agoIt's exactly ligatures. I presume the author avoided that term so you didn't confuse it with the ligatures that are included in Unicode.
- erk__ 3y agoYes this is exactly ligature, I just became aware that it was possible to use wasm for them in HarfBuzz, if you want to see some wasm examples that is not possible with ligatures have a look at https://github.com/harfbuzz/harfbuzz-wasm-examples https://github.com/harfbuzz/harfbuzz-wasm-examples
