In 1979, under license from ATF, International Typeface Corporation created four new weights ? Book, Medium, Demi and Heavy ? in roman and italic versions. For some unknown reason no light or intermediate weights were ever created. Over the next several years, the ATF family was expanded to include italic, condensed, condensed shaded, extra condensed and wide variants. Any suggestions or ideas can be voiced via an issue.Designed in 1904 by Morris Fuller Benton for the American Type Founders company, Franklin Gothic was originally conceived as only one weight. Other Notesįeel free to star and contribute new ideas to this repository that aim to improve the performance of font loading, as well as expanding the existing library we already have. You can find their specific licenses on each package README.md. The Ubuntu fonts use the Ubuntu Font License v1.0. Most of the fonts in the collection use the SIL Open Font License, v1.1. LicensingĪlways make sure to read the license for each font you use. If you wish to submit a PR yourself, check out the documentation on packaging the fonts yourself here. Adding New Fontsįor Open Source fonts that are not automatically updated by the Google ecosystem, we have a generic packager that builds CSS files for the project. Feel free to contribute!Ĭheck out the documentation here. This repository is constantly evolving with other Open Source fonts. Support for fonts outside the Google Font ecosystem.


This feature is beneficial for Progressive Web Apps and situations where you have limited or no access to the internet. Google does track the usage of their fonts and for those who are extremely privacy concerned, self-hosting is an alternative. Manage your fonts like any other NPM dependency.Ĭommit to privacy.

Google often pushes updates to their fonts without notice, which may interfere with your live production projects. This can help to prevent doubled visual load times for simple websites, as benchmarked here and here.įonts remain version locked. Self-hosting fonts can significantly improve website performance by eliminating the extra latency caused by additional DNS resolution and TCP connection establishment that is required when using a CDN like Google Fonts. Our full documentation and search directory can be found here. An updating monorepo full of self-hostable Open Source fonts bundled into individual NPM packages!
