Getting started

Prerequisites

• Node.js 20+
• Windows: run the CLI with administrative privileges when installing fonts system-wide.

npm

npm install -g google-font-cli

The binary name is gfcli.

Homebrew

brew install t2sever/tap/gfcli

First run

gfcli install "Open Sans" -v regular,700

If the name matches more than one family, the tool prints alternatives and does nothing until you pick an unambiguous name.

Continue with CLI commands and Troubleshooting if something fails.
