Nice, love it! Unrelated note: I think it'd be nice if we can start getting descriptions for fonts too?
We used to have these, but they were mass-removed because they weren't useful. Edit: Just seeing now that you commented in favour of reverting the PR back then 😅 I don't remember seeing that at the time. I'm ok to consider it moving forward. |
