Colophon
Credits and licenses
Everything in here that somebody else made, and the terms it came with.
Typefaces
Both are variable, both are served from this site in woff2, and neither loads from anyone else's server. Each comes as a latin file and an extended latin file, which a page fetches only when it has one of its letters.
- Newsreader
- Production Type, for the Newsreader Project Authors. Carries the headings and the large figures. 57 KB, and 36 KB extended. SIL Open Font License 1.1.
- Public Sans
- The United States Web Design System, for the Public Sans Project Authors. Carries the reading text, labels, controls and figures. 26 KB, and 18 KB extended. SIL Open Font License 1.1.
The SIL Open Font License requires its text to travel with the
font files. Both licenses sit next to the fonts they cover in
static/fonts and the links above go straight to them.
Software
- Flask and Jinja2
- Pallets Projects. BSD 3-Clause. The server and the templates.
- Polar
- Payments, subscriptions and invoices. A service rather than a library: nothing of theirs runs in this page.
In the browser
No framework, no build step and no bundle. The stylesheets are written by hand and served as they are. There is no analytics script and no third party JavaScript of any kind, which is why there is no cookie banner asking about any.
The rest
The interface is set on the idea of an accounting ledger, which is where the paper colour and the alternating tone came from. Nobody owns that idea.
