This looks way too much like the editor in Pentacom' BitFontMaker https://www.pentacom.jp/pentacom/bitfontmaker2/

Admittedly I did take inspiration from BitFontMaker, and a couple of other tools as well, but with the hope of building on them in some ways.

But one design choice of Pentaocm's tool, which I really appreciate, is how the individual glyph previews update as you make changes on the main canvas. This was an aspect I also implemented in Karektar, though with a larger gallery for more legibility.

A new feature I did develop was the ability to input a custom query for your own unique glyph set. To my knowledge, that is not a feature you'll find in most of these tools.
