Fast font similarity via 64‑dimensional vectors and per‑script HNSW indices.
FontVector, GlobalMetrics, ScriptId, IndexCollection, and low-level docs/tests under tests/.ScriptIndex, compute_font_vector, render_canonical, compute_ssim, and a stub optimize_match; the CLI and pipeline run, but optimizer refinement and more tests are still needed for v3.1..so in the repo targets CPython 3.13 only; rebuild for your interpreter with maturin.LICENSE is included.cd /Users/adam/Developer/vcs/github.docrepair-fonts/fontsimi
