- Research direction
- Examine the Hack font's build scripts and how existing character sets (Latin, Cyrillic) are defined. Look for font source files (e.g., .sfd or .ufo) in the repository. Research font design tools like FontForge and understand how to add new glyphs following the existing style. Consider the Unicode range for Hebrew and how to integrate it into the font's build process.
