Description

The type specimen web site currently lives in this branch

https://github.com/source-foundry/Hack/tree/gh-pages

and on this URL https://source-foundry.github.io/Hack/font-specimen.html

@burodepeper @jublo thoughts about moving this elsewhere (external to the repository) and using jsDelivr to automatically keep it current with the released web fonts on the jsDelivr CDN? We should ideally be able to push new releases and it loads the updated CDN versions no?

Research direction
Investigate the current type specimen website at https://source foundry.github.io/Hack/font specimen.html and the gh pages branch. Determine if there is a separate repository for the website or if it should be moved to a new one. Consider using jsDelivr to serve the web fonts and ensure the site updates automatically with releases. Coordinate with assignees @burodepeper and @jublo to clarify scope and desired hosting.
