I am excited to announce the all new Type Foundry Directory!

beautiful, simple, elegant interaction from @Morning_Type's landing page

@yamanarora01 Cheers!

@BrentSchoepf You should DO IT!

@Morning_Type here for this i. (also, really great! — was doing something similar in our website redesign and now I'm put to SHAME)

New Morning Type website 👀

New Morning Type website dropping this week? 👀

For the nerds (me), the Type Foundry Directory now has a changelog: typefoundry.directory/changelog/

Realizing I don’t have a direct link to this on the site yet, but here are the operating costs (not accounting for my own time) and income from the directory so far. typefoundry.directory/transparency

@bertwitt Cheers!

I’ve been wanting to do this for a long time! I’m glad someone did it Looks awesome

@danserif Thanks, Dan!

@Morning_Type Bravo! Excellent update, sir. Loved the incredibly thorough methodology. Looking forward to seeing the typeface directory!

I am excited to announce the all new Type Foundry Directory!

@Morning_Type Bless you for not including monotype

@EvaSilvertant I can give it another look! I had tried this previously but didn’t like it 😅

@Morning_Type I think it would work if you put the column names on two lines and bottom-align them.

@jstrelioff Thanks, Jessica!

This is gold: typefoundry.directory

@EvaSilvertant Right now you can hide columns of information in the settings panel if there is information you don’t necessarily need to view. While now yet implemented, the site will eventually remember those settings so you can effectively save your own view preferences.

@EvaSilvertant I hear you! Unfortunately the compromise there then becomes truncating the names of the columns. I ended up deciding to compromise compactness in favor of clarity.

@mikesmith187 🙏 Thanks for sharing, Mike!

God is a website

@BPrangell I’ll give it a closer look on my end too. Mobile has received very little attention so far haha

@Morning_Type Ah weird! I tried Chrome and Samsung browser. I'll keep playing...

@kevintwohy Appreciate it, Kevin!

@Morning_Type this specific detail is such a good idea

@BPrangell Definitely not very optimized for mobile yet 😅 Curious which browser/phone you are using? The columns are anchored/sticky on my iPhone in both Safari and Chrome

@Morning_Type Looks Ace. A suggestion (as I was scrolling to run through the many Foundry clients of ours to check the data) - it is possible to anchor the column headings so they are still visible as you scroll? Im on mobile and couldn't work out what the 'yes' and 'no' answers relate to! Bx

There is a lot more to this update and there is a lot more planned, but I will let you discover what the directory has to offer for yourself! typefoundry.directory

From research to development to maintenance, the directory has largely been an independent effort. I am introducing sponsored nameplates to help provide financial backing which allows me to allocate time, effort, and external resources to future developments.
