Hey! I would really love to get into making my own fonts. I am therefore looking for software that can help me do that, and was wondering if this community had any recommendations?
I would have the following requirements for the software:

• Free (I just want to have a go at it and get into it)
• Simple enough for a beginner but advanced enough to make good fonts
• Able to make carefully designed lettering e.g. modern, sans serif fonts
• I would also love a way to turn my handwriting into a font using my pen tablet that I connect to my computer, but I understand this may require a separate piece of software
• MacOS Support

I do own the full Affinity suite if some of your recommendations require vector software.

Thanks so much!
