The best way to get Google Fonts offline

If you're doing any work creating UI mockups, chances are you've downloaded a few Google fonts to your computer. Doing this manually is tedious, and you wouldn't be up to date when the fonts get updated.

SkyFonts is a free font syncing service that puts webfonts into your computer. It works with paid services like fonts.com, but also offers unlimited support for Google Fonts.

Monotype Skyfonts is available via Caskroom as monotype-skyfonts.
