"FONTS"

Fonts

We use Cantarell and Hack.

While the Online Portal is designed to be font-neutral, you can use our set of fonts to match.

Sans-Serif

Our Workstation uses Cantarell, a contemporary Humanist sans serif used by the GNOME project for its user interface.

You can obtain its OpenType font (OTF) files:

  1. [Download fonts-cantarell] from the Debian unstable repository.
  2. Extract the package as well as data.tar within it.
  3. Find them in /data/usr/share/fonts/opentype/cantarell/.

Fixed-Width (Monospace)

Our Workstation uses Hack, an excellent drop-in replacement to its assumed-dead Bitstream Vera and DejaVu parents.

Hack is designed to be a workhorse typeface for source code. It has deep roots in the free, open source typeface community and expands upon the contributions of the Bitstream Vera & DejaVu projects. The large x-height + wide aperture + low contrast design make it legible at commonly used source code text sizes with a sweet spot that runs in the 8 - 14 range.

You can obtain its TrueType (TTF) or Web Open Font Format (WOFF) font files by downloading your preferred latest release package from their [Git repository].
