This will be dripping with my own opinions (and I’m quite picky). But hopefully it’s at least a consistent taste. If you’ve found just one typeface you loved from this project, it was worth it.\n\nA secondary goal of this project is to **give credit to the type designers.** Sometimes this isn’t as prominent as it should be on other sites. Give people credit (after all, it’s usually their only form of payment here)!\n\n![”They always ask ’what font that’, never ’who font that’”](./img/whofontthat.jpg)\n\n### Similar projects\n\nIf you’d like to discover other typeface collections such as these, check out:\n\n- [Open Foundry](https://open-foundry.com)\n- [Beautiful Web Type](https://beautifulwebtype.com/)\n- [chriscoyier/coding-fonts](https://github.com/chriscoyier/coding-fonts)\n- [Fontsource](https://github.com/fontsource/fontsource)\n\n_Note: I’m not associated with any of the following_\n\n### How did you find all these typefaces?\n\nVarious sources and newsletters, including Twitter.
