Web typography from choosing fonts to spacing, wrapping and accessibility. Use when picking or pairing typefaces, configuring variable fonts or OpenType features, setting up a type scale, checking heading hierarchy, styling text in components, truncating text, styling underlines, selection, placeholders or carets, or reviewing frontend code for typography. Triggers on typography, fonts, font formats, woff2, variable fonts, font-weight, opentype, font-feature-settings, letter-spacing…

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Great typography

Good typography is mostly restraint. A sensible scale, comfortable spacing and enough contrast beat any clever effect. A label, a table cell, a marketing headline and an article paragraph should not share one set of rules. Apply these principles when building or reviewing anything with text in it.

When reviewing, read the page instead of scanning the code: squint to check the hierarchy holds, read one full paragraph for comfort, and resize the viewport to catch bad wrapping, widows and truncation at real content lengths.

The words themselves (button labels, error messages, empty states) are covered by the `better-writing` skill; semantic heading structure by `better-accessibility`; spatial RTL layout and logical CSS properties by `better-layout`; rendered-pair contrast measurement and color remediation by `better-colors`. This skill owns how text renders, wraps, and behaves in mixed-direction content.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add bjornmelin/dev-skills/better-typography@sha256:2c65b6a762911b45

The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
