This project has one of the best designed homepages and introductions to a project I've seen for a long time: https://rsms.me/inter/ https://rsms.me/inter/

Heh, yeah, it's almost like the project was created by a professional designer.

  Ha! You'd be surprised. I've seen some dreadfully unusable pages designed by celebrated designers. I think there's a distinction between designers who focus on visuals and effects and those who actually produce good overall experiences. This person clearly falls into the latter and, I argue, smaller group.

    More UI than UI/UX. I'd prefer a UX expert overall, it would at least imply a reasonably decent UI.

    Just as an FYI, I believe Rasmus was the original Design Lead at Spotify.

Yeah it's a very nice and clean homepage. Anyone know if there's a template for a page like this, (looking to use it with hugo if possible) Thanks

I looked at that page and was impressed. Does anyone here have suggestions on freely licensed serif fonts that focus on readability (non-system fonts)?

  You may be interested in Source Serif Pro[1]. Incidentally, Times (New) Roman was also designed with legibility at very small sizes in mind, though unfortunately it's become the very defintion of bland serif font. You may also want to check out Charter[2].

  "Does anyone here have suggestions on freely licensed serif fonts that focus on readability (non-system fonts)?" Not a serif font...but in 2013 Intel released a sans-serif font called Clear Sans, designed for on-screen legibility. The font was designed and created by type designer Daniel Ratighan and is available under the Apache 2.0 License. https://01.org/clear-sans https://01.org/clear-sans

  Perhaps Google Noto (Sans and Serif): https://www.google.com/get/noto/ https://www.google.com/get/noto/
