Projects That May or May Not be Made
TYPOTEK
What is it?
- A locally-running font-library, to display all the fonts I have installed on my computer so I can easily visualize them and choose from my collection when I need to.
Why make it?
- Because windows is shit and doesn't provide a good way to sort and visualize installed fonts.
- I still haven't found an external app that suits my needs.
Workflow
- ⚹ Install the new fonts I collected
- ⚹ Make sure every font has a stylesheet and web formats
-
- > For this, use transfonter
- ⚹ Start a web project, probably based on Julien Bidoret's repository
-
- > This step needs a deep dive into PHP and why it is not working anymore
- ⚹ Make sure that the project is hosted on codeberg for archive and versioning!
Timetable
Clean up and font installation ~ 1 full day TBD Verify and update stylesheets and web formats ~ 3 days TBD Fix PHP half a day to a day TBD Fill the website with font-files and adapt categories ~ 2 days TBD Bug fixing ~ 1 day TBD
