- Improved the design of several samples
- Added Le Murmure
- Removed Colus. After adding this typeface earlier in the week, I discovered that it was free but not open-source. After some thought I’ve decided to focus exclusively on open-source, rather than just free, typefaces.
20 Nov 2018
- Added Poppins
- Added Colus
- Updated home page to show only 10 latest typefaces as well as pairings. Given the number of typefaces now on the site, showing them all was causing the home page to load too slowly.

- Preload some fonts to improve rendering on page load. It’s going to be a constant challenge with page load times and font rendering, given the number of assets I’m loading. As a first step, I’m preloading fonts that appear in the site header and index page headers.

- Added Archivo Black
- Updated the visual design of all typeface samples. My original intention was to keep all the samples black and white in order to focus attention on the typeface rather than the design. However, I came to feel that the black backgrounds when viewed together became too monotonous. Additionally, the color helps to suggest a usage context for each typeface.
- Removed Merriweather. I could no longer ignore the feeling that Merriweather was not a top-quality open-source typeface. It’s missing ligatures and other OpenType features and aesthetically I feel it has flaws.
15 Oct 2018
- Completely new version of site with new typefaces, updated examples, and new detail pages showing OpenType features and more.
