Hey peeps! What are some of the best and simplest (free) sites/apps to create custom fonts? Thanks!

icomoon.io is ridiculously easy to use.
It's intended for icon sets but I see no reason you couldn't create any font as long as you don't mind not having kerning.

Put the effort in.
Font Lab.

Glyphs is cheaper, and the learning curve is not that steep compared to Fontlab. I'd go with Glyphs for starters, as there seems to be more tutorials for it also. I'm always amazed at the lack of tutorials there is on the internet about font making..
Fontstruct is also nice to play, but it is very limited (which can be a good exercise, depending how you look at it)

PS. The first person to port FontStruct (or something similar) to the iPad will be rich.
