Open source google fonts alternative (alien.top)

Hello everyone! I'm looking for a self-hosted alternative to Google Fonts. I've noticed that many open-source projects rely on Google Fonts, but in cases like a private LAN, it might not be accessible. I'm wondering if there's an alternative solution that would allow open-source projects to configure their own font provider. Any suggestions?

Not sure what you are asking for specifically. You know that you can download fonts from Google Fonts and self-host them, right?
This is what many do for networks that are not connected to the internet and works.

Also: normally you would implement a fallback font for any external font that is availiable on the system.
