Suggest a font

We maintain a curated list of pixel fonts that work well with textmode.js. Your font suggestions help expand the creative possibilities for everyone using the library.

Requirements

Before suggesting a font, please ensure it meets these criteria:

1. Monospaced - Each character must have the same width
2. Small pixel sizes - Works well at typical sizes (8x8, 8x16, etc.)
3. Proper licensing - The font's license allows for inclusion/mention
4. Clear legibility - Characters are distinguishable at small sizes

How to submit

You can submit a font suggestion in two ways:

Option 1: Pull request (recommended)

1. Fork the code.textmode.art repository
2. Add your font entry to .vitepress/data/fonts.json
3. Submit a pull request with your changes

Option 2: Open an issue

Open an issue on GitHub with the following information:

• Font name
• Download link or source repository
• Brief description (1-2 sentences about the font's style or use case)
• Glyph count (if known)
• License information (e.g., MIT, CC0, OFL)
• Preview image (optional but helpful)

Font data structure

When adding to fonts.json, use this structure:

{
  "name": "Font Name",
  "author": "Author Name",
  "license": "MIT",
  "url": "https://link-to-font.com",
  "description": "Brief description of the font",
  "glyphCount": 256,
  "previewImage": "/font_previews/fontname/preview.png"
}

After submission

Once your submission is reviewed and approved:

• The font will appear on the Fonts page
• You'll be credited in the Contributors page
• The community will have access to a new creative tool!
