Sans Forgetica

In plain words

Sans Forgetica is a free typeface developed by RMIT University researchers that applies cognitive psychology principles to improve memory retention of written study notes. Created by a team of designers and behavioral scientists, the font is designed to make text harder to read at first glance, which prompts greater cognitive effort during studying and strengthens information recall. It is intended for students and anyone looking to enhance their note-taking effectiveness through a simple font change.

  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!
