Monocraft - v4.0 - To Boldly Go... Latest Release

Published by IdreesInc 2 months ago

Thanks to the fantastic work of @Dheatly23, Monocraft now supports bold and italics natively! Their code adds multiple weights including lighter and bolder weights so you can customize Monocraft's appearance to your liking!

Since Monocraft now includes multiple weights, installation has changed. The best way to install Monocraft is to use the Monocraft.ttc file included in this (and future) releases! This is just a bundle of the TTF files for each weight in one nice package. If you'd rather install the fonts individually (or need to use the OTF for whatever reason), download the Monocraft-ttf-otf.zip file instead and unzip it for the separate files. Thanks again to @Dheatly23 for their wonderful work!

Monocraft - v3.0 - The Big One

Published by IdreesInc over 1 year ago

Thanks to the brilliant work of @dantaeusb and @Ciubix8513, Monocraft now has over 1500+ glyphs and continuous ligatures! I mean look at this:

@dantaeusb has added almost 1000 characters to the glyph set, bringing the total number of characters to 1455! Most of these include characters from non-European languages and a number of these characters are not monospaced.
@Ciubix8513 has enabled the use of continuous ligatures! With her contributions, you can now type arrows and lines up to 30 characters long (which seems excessive, but hey who am I to judge?).

Since this release contains so many new characters, there's always a chance that a bug slipped through the cracks. Please report any issues through the repo's "Issues" tab and make any comments in the discussion down below. Thanks once again to all the amazing people that have built and improved this font!

Monocraft - v3.0-beta

Published by IdreesInc over 1 year ago

@dantaeusb has added almost 1000 characters to the glyph set, bringing the total number of characters to 1455! Most of these include characters from non-European languages and a number of these characters are not monospaced. There is still work to be done to ensure that the generated characters that can be modified to be monospaced are modified as needed. It is my opinion that it is better to have the non-monospaced characters rather than nothing, but if you believe the font should be purely monospaced feel free to comment that and we can discuss. For now, this release will be a beta, but please feel free to install it and help out by reporting any issues or comments!

Monocraft - v2.0

Published by IdreesInc almost 2 years ago

Monocraft has officially graduated to version 2.0! The font is now generated via a script rather than being hand-drawn, meaning that it is significantly easier to add new glyphs and make changes. And with the help of @Ciubix8513, we have added hundreds of additional characters bringing the total number of glyphs to over 500! Also, .ttf and .otf files are now generated automatically, meaning you can pick and choose which format to use.

What's Changed

Added generation of data for characters with diacritics by @Ciubix8513 in https://github.com/IdreesInc/Monocraft/pull/72
Added Esperanto glyphs by @Ciubix8513 in https://github.com/IdreesInc/Monocraft/pull/68
