Ask HN: What do you use for your typography base?
With a vast selection of CSS frameworks out there and a number of helpful tools, I couldn't but notice there is a lack of good typography base out there. Maybe I just can't find one, and I am not an expert in the field.
I'm talking about a good base for readability on blogs and larger amounts of text (like documentation or stories).
So, what do you guys use/prefer? I think a combination of what readability does with wikipedia would blend in nicely.
- jasdeepsingh 13y agoI would personally like some insights from the community on this as well. Not a designer per sè, but I'm a big fan of clean, readable and beautiful typography.
- gflateman 13y agoNot a css framework, but this is a fantastic ebook on the subject: http://practicaltypography.com/ http://practicaltypography.com/
- meerita 13y agoI use Bootstrap. As a designer I really appreciate the pragmatism of Bootstrap Typography set of rules. I can't tell the other frameworks but by watching the docs of Foundation I see typography rules. I like to use Google Fonts now (typekit on the past). Big fonts for reading and headers, not so long paragraphs and you will achieve a good level of readability.
