It's only a matter of time until clients find this tool and ruin designer's lives. Great product though 😉

Hey guys, just wanted to say we're still in the middle of developing FontFit, so if you're interested keep an eye out for new features that should help making the UX way better. And if you have any ideas or recommendations we'd be very grateful for your insight! We're hoping to make it into a useful tool for people who want to test out different fonts on a live website and people who want to show others how a website might look with different fonts (for example if you have a client and you want to show him how the site would look like in Comic Sans we have a dynamic share link that shows the site with the fonts and styles you had selected.) Some new features coming soon (please let me know if you find some of them useful so we know what where to direct our effort): • Font Suggestions (which fonts look good together as title and body text) • Automatic font styles grab from other sites (say you want to test the fonts bbc.com uses) • A list of styles/fonts you've picked and a way to reset them more easily

@peedutuisk Liked the whole idea. Effective on what it tries to solve.

Awesome tool, @peedutuisk. Is it possible to go beyond fonts and allow for a sharable link with CSS tweaks of any kind? I would love to be able to copy and paste styles externally into a site I can't edit directly and then share the changes with a client via a link.

@alex_dinardo Yep, that's the direction we're heading. 😉 Taking it step by step.

This is really nice. I'm in the middle of transitioning fonts across our sites right now, and this I was able to see a preview in about 10 seconds. I'll use this in the future, for sure. One suggestion: list the fonts alphabetically. I really had to hunt for the one I wanted.

@mvboeke Good point, I'm not entirely sure why they aren't alphabetic already. :) Will fix asap. Thanks for the kind words!

Very cool tool! One thing though, it'd be great to know what the font looks like before selecting it from the dropdown list.

@jsngr This is currently limited by the fact that we had to use OS default dropdowns, otherwise the dropdown would not appear outside the top bar area. And the OS default dropdown doesn't allow us to show custom fonts inside it. However we are working on a fix, hope to put it live soon! :)

@peedutuisk Yeah you'd need a custom dropdown :)

Looks great, one suggestion and something ive really battled with with many design tools........ please instead of just having the name of the font, make the name of the font the actual font also. This is visual queue of how the font looks even before making a selection. Visually you can find the font you want much much quicker then going through each one. ;)

@nemrod One thing our tool aims to do, is to get rid of that one extra step of installing a [browser] plugin. When using our tool you don't have to worry about the client installing an extension or having to use Chrome at all. Also we're planning to offer a much wider set of fonts to play around on your website in the (near) future.

I love this idea, although it doesn't work if the fonts are served up from something like typekit or typography.com where the url has to be approved before it loads in any fonts.

@stevegisme We will be negotiating with Typekit and other paid font providers to approve our site so their fonts would work and users could also try their fonts before buying them.

@hpeinar That would be amazing! I'll keep checking back for updates.
