## What it is
The canonical repository of binary font files served by Google Fonts, organized by license and family, with metadata files for each family. It also hosts the public issue tracker for bug reports and font development requests related to Google Fonts.

## Use cases
- download all Google Fonts ttf files for offline use
- self-host Google Fonts instead of loading from the CDN
- report a rendering bug in a Google Font
- submit a new font family to Google Fonts
- inspect variable font axis metadata
- bundle fonts into an npm package via Fontsource

## When to choose
- you need the raw font binaries for self-hosting or offline installation
- you want to contribute a font or file an issue against Google Fonts
- you need family metadata like license, designer, and category

## When to avoid
- you want a convenient npm package per font family - use Fontsource instead
- you need a font rendering or shaping library rather than font files
- you want the Google Fonts web API or CSS serving service
