MORETS: desenvolvimento de uma ferramenta para construção de sistemas tipográficos web responsivos

Abstract

The use of typographic systems while creating digital interfaces is a common and recommended practice. When it comes to websites, there is a recurring concern to keep layouts comfortable and consistent for different screen sizes considering the variety of devices on the market. One of the main challenges in this context are the changes in the characteristics of the texts present in these environments, like font sizes and line heights. Furthermore, in recent times, variable fonts have been gaining emphasis and visibility from scholars and enthusiasts of design and typography for their potential, for example, changing character width dynamically. This work presents the research and development of a solution that aims to generate responsive typographic systems. The web tool proposed is inspired by canons of typography, uses web development techniques and the possibilities of variable fonts, allowing users to create fluid and customizable type systems with responsive behavior.
