Font Options #29

Open MinchinWeb opened 6 months ago

MinchinWeb commented 6 months ago

This issue is to keep track of various fonts I might come across, that I think might be used as a "shortlist", if I ever decide to change the fonts.

Operator Mono, see #4

Monospaced font. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to be free. I think their big "invention" was the idea of using a cursive for italics.

Rebond Grotesque.

Originally seen on Arne.me. Also seems to be a paid font, but has "fun" g and k, amoung others.

Sacramento

Available on Google Fonts (so free). One of the few that looks like the connected cursive I learned in school. Doesn't join capitals together well. May be useful if I want to "sign" the site somewhere.

I like this font, particularly the italics. But it doesn't seem to have a reasonable font name... --> https://zed.dev/blog/we-have-to-start-over

Averia Libre had the feel of low cost, old school, analogue printing (where the ink would pool slightly around the letters for to cheap paper).

paired with Caveat, which is a "handwriting font" but stays surrounding readable at smaller sizes.

Originally seem in Magick.css.

IM Fell DW Pica (wow, what a name...) is another "old school, analogue printing" font, available on Google Fonts.
