    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).

    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).

    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…

    TrueType fonts have a hinting VM that grid-fits glyphs. It has a stack, storage area, conditionals, function calls, and it turns out it's Turing-complete. So I built a raycasting engine in the hinting bytecode. The glyph "A" in the font has 16 vertical bar contours. The hinting program reads player coordinates from font variation axes via GETVARIATION, does DDA ray marching against a tile map in the storage area, and repositions bar heights with SCFS. It ends up looking like a crude Wolfenstein-style view. Small visuzlization:…

    Hey HN, I've been working on fontofweb.com on and off for the past 4 years, and I'm keen to share it with you. It lets you type in the URL of any website and see exactly how the fonts are used: all the weights, line heights, and sizes. A big plus is that it doesn't require a Chrome extension, unlike a lot of other tools in this space. You can also search for a specific font and find websites using it. For example, check out sites using Inter: https://fontofweb.com/w/inter. This reverse font search even supports looking for multiple fonts at once, like here’s an example…
