    I've been looking for new fonts to use for a new project, but there weren't any great tools for seeing how a particular serif font for headers would look with another sans font for paragraph text, so I built a tool that lets you compare, adjust, and tinker with the way you'd use a font in your specific project before downloading it/setting it up. This is only using the free Google fonts for now. If there are other open-source fonts I should add, let me know and I'll add them!

    During the hype of llama.ttf months ago, I was speculating the potential of WASM shaper for even crazier purpose, one that fitter to a font shaper's duty -- to synthesize font at runtime. This project as proof-of-concept implements a synthesizer that generates and rasterizes handwriting-style font, backed by a super-lightweight RNN model (~14MiB).

    Hey HN, For the last few months, I've been working on a personal project called HandFonted, and I'm excited to share the result with you all. The goal was to build a fully automated pipeline that could take a single image of a person's handwritten alphabets and generate a usable .ttf font file. You can try it here: https://handfonted.xyz And the code is open-source here: https://github.com/reshamgaire/HandFonted The Technical Stack and Workflow: The process is broken down into three main stages: 1. Segmentation (OpenCV): The user uploads an image. I use a series…

    Karektar is a React/TS app for building exportable bitmap fonts from custom glyph sets. You can submit your own input string, and the app will generate the gallery of unique glyphs. Build your own designs using the various tools available, then export it to an OTF format when you're done. This is my first front-end project, and one I picked up to learn React. I'd love to hear any feedback, especially on usability and additional features you'd like to see. Cheers!

    In the "Libre Barcode Project" discussion yesterday, 1bpp asked: "Is anyone willing to sacrifice their sanity for the sake of implementing a QR renderer as TTF hinting code?" Yes. I had some tokens to burn and was curious... turns out, it's possible. This was put together by a mix of Gemini, GPT, and Claude (depending on which usage limits kept running out).
