# Geist

![The word "Geist" written as ASCII art using triangular patterns. Below are three font specimens:
Sans - A modern sans-serif typeface showing the alphabet in uppercase and lowercase, numbers, and symbols including punctuation and special characters. Mono - A monospaced typeface displaying the same character set with fixed-width spacing ideal for coding. Pixel - A pixelated bitmap-style typeface showing the complete alphabet, numbers, and symbols with a retro digital aesthetic. At the bottom are five icons representing different geometric patterns or grid styles.](./documentation/img/geist-banner--light.png#gh-light-mode-only)

# Geist Sans, Geist Mono & Geist Pixel

Geist is a new font family for Vercel, created by [Vercel](https://vercel.com/design) in collaboration with [Basement Studio](https://basement.studio/) and [Andrés Briganti](https://briganti.works).

Geist Sans is a sans-serif typeface designed for legibility and simplicity. It is a modern, geometric typeface that is based on the principles of [classic Swiss typography](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Typographic_Style). It is designed to be used in headlines, logos, posters, and other large display sizes.

Geist Mono is a monospaced typeface that has been crafted to be the perfect partner to Geist Sans. It is designed to be used in code editors, diagrams, terminals, and other textbased interfaces where code is represented.

Geist Pixel is a pixel typeface designed to complement the Geist font family, built on the same principles of minimalism, precision, and simplicity that define the universe. Conceived as a display font, it pays homage to the pixel font genre while expressing the brand’s future-forward, visionary spirit, and is available in five stylistic variants for a wide range of applications.

### Inspiration

Geist has been influenced and inspired by the following typefaces: [Inter](https://rsms.me/inter/), [Univers](https://www.linotype.com/1212814/univers-family.html), [SF Mono](https://developer.apple.com/fonts/), [SF Pro](https://developer.apple.com/fonts/), [Suisse International](https://www.swisstypefaces.com/fonts/suisse/), [ABC Diatype Mono](https://abcdinamo.com/typefaces/diatype), and [ABC Diatype](https://abcdinamo.com/typefaces/diatype). We thank the creators of these typefaces for their craft.

## Building

Fonts are built automatically by GitHub Actions - take a look in the "Actions" tab for the latest build.

If you want to build fonts manually on your own computer:

- `make build` will produce font files.
- `make test` will run [Fontspector](https://github.com/fonttools/fontspector)'s quality assurance tests.
- `make proof` will generate HTML proof files.

The proof files and QA tests are also available automatically via GitHub Actions - look at https://vercel.github.io/geist-font/.
