StrokeScribbler
2025
In late 2024, Kai Bernau brought me on to the project, in the hopes that I could develop a RoboFont tool to visualize a Noordzij-ian method of drawing inside the glyph editor.

The tool is based around StrokeFlattener, a custom implimentation of both the FlattenPen and SamplingPen functionailties. Supplying the pen with a dictionary of indexes and point counts as `approximateSegmentLength`, it will sample the contour but if you give it an integer it will calculate the distance to subdivide the contour. 

Research for Beyond Bézier was carried out by Matthieu Cortat-Roller, Alice Savoie, Kai Bernau, Radim Peško, Micha Wasem and Florence Yerly. The project started in September 2023 and was completed in May 2025.
