This series is a project inspired by @dickiebush’s "Ship 30 for 30” Atomic Essays. Which, I commit to spend 30 minutes a day for 30 days straight to write a short essay about software development tools that I love. My goal is to build my daily writing habit and connect to more people. Check out #ship30for30 on Twitter.
Have you ever seen any font that you like on the internet but had no idea how to find out? Have you ever spent so much time scrolling through GoogleFont to hunt for the perfect font or to find the one that matches the one you have seen? Have you had a hard time trying to pair fonts for your project?
WhatFont can help you with that.
WhatFont is a browser extension that helps identify fonts on a webpage fast. All you need to do is just add the extension on your browser. When you click the WhatFont icon on your top bar, then hover over the text you’re looking at, then another text pops up near the pointer telling you the name of the pointed font.
I use WhatFont when I see any unique fonts that I like, or when a website has a perfect pair of fonts. I take a note, download the fonts from my usual sources and apply that to my project. Fast. Easy. Effective. All credits to the WhatFont developer, Chengyin.
To try WhatFont, search for ‘whatfont extension’ on your search engine. Choose the link that takes you to your browser extension section. For me, I use Chrome. Here’s what it looks like:
WhatFont Chrome extension
After that, click ‘Add to Chrome’. You can pin or unpin the extension by clicking on the extension icon (jigsaw) and choose your options.

This extension is highly recommended, especially if you’re a designer or web developer. Because who doesn’t love tools that make us work faster?

Good afternoon! A reliable writing service for various assignments is, in my opinion, very important for students. For me, the importance of writing a statement of purpose is undeniable. It's no secret that this is a key document that allows you to present yourself, your goals and motivation in a way that attracts attention to yourself. I used the experience of statement of purpose writers who were able to provide in-depth analysis and were also clear in their expression. Also important, in my opinion, was the ability to present their goals briefly and convincingly.
Very interesting article. I also love different unusual fonts. It is a pity that when completing assignments in college, you must adhere to certain rules for writing and formatting. For me it's boring. I am assisted by professional essay writers I like that this company employs hand-selected certified essay writers. Especially experience of work of these writers more than 20 years. I am already convinced that they can be trusted.
Writing an essay is great practice for being articulate, arguing persuasively, and bringing attention to one's own ideas and krunker work.
