  • A continuation of [my previous post](https://languages.codidact.com/questions/279152).
  • ## Crowdsourced font stack for Languages & Linguistics
  • I am currently working on crafting font stacks for each script; see the draft pull request here: https://github.com/codidact/qpixel/pull/290.
  • Since I am by no means familiar with all the various typographies of different languages, I'd like to ask all of you to help contribute. Please discuss any additions or changes that you'd like to make to the table, and I'll incorporate them.
  • Note: Preferably, we want to cover each major system, so we will need font stacks that cover Windows, Mac, ChromeOS, etc. You can find details below.

  • - [Fonts included with iOS and macOS](https://developer.apple.com/fonts/system-fonts/) (Official Apple website)
  • - ChromeOS, as far as I've researched, comes with Roboto and Noto preinstalled. As those are two which we want to use anyway, this doesn't pose a problem.

## Crowdsourced font stack for Languages & Linguistics

I am currently working on crafting font stacks for each script; see the draft pull request here: https://github.com/codidact/qpixel/pull/290.

Since I am by no means familiar with all the various typographies of different languages, I'd like to ask all of you to help contribute. Please discuss any additions or changes that you'd like to make to the table, and I'll incorporate them.

## Draft font stack

| Language  | Font Stack |
|-----------|------------|
| Arabic    | |
| Chinese&nbsp;Traditional | Noto Sans CJK TC, Noto Sans CJK, Microsoft JhengHei, sans-serif  |
| Chinese&nbsp;Simplified[^1] | Noto Sans CJK SC, Noto Sans CJK, Microsoft YaHei, sans-serif |
| Greek     | |
| Hebrew    | Frank Ruhl Libre, Narkisim, serif |
| Icelandic | |
| Japanese  | Noto Sans CJK JP, Noto Sans CJK, Hirajino Kaku Gothic Pro, Meiryo, sans-serif |

[^1]: and Chinese that isn't labeled as traditional or simplified.
