How to explore: Click any character to open it in the zoom stage — it's rendered as a real vector font, so it stays perfectly crisp no matter how far you blow it up. In the stage: scroll / pinch to zoom, drag to pan, toggle Outline to see the bare letterform skeleton and Guides for the typographic baseline/x-height. Use ← → to move between writing systems, Esc to close.

The six families of writing — every script here is one of: Alphabet (a letter per consonant & vowel), Abjad (consonants only, vowels implied), Abugida (consonant carries an inherent vowel, modified by marks), Syllabary (one symbol per whole syllable), Featural (letter shapes encode how the sound is made), Logographic (a symbol per word/morpheme). Watch the type badge change as you move through the tour.
