Whitespaces+

Hey PH folks! I’m Kirill, the maker of Whitespaces+. Thanks Thomas @tchret for hunting the project! As a designer myself, I know how designers value precision, particularly in typography. One of the important design tools we use is a white space around graphic elements and texts. There are different ways to control spacing between words. But the fastest and the most reliable one is whitespace characters. Thing is, we only have one among the many types of it on our keyboards. So what you would normally do is rush through the Unicode tables, most of them having no copy/paste, tons of ads and slow load time. It’s such a drag! So that's why I’ve made this simple page with a list of all the most common whitespaces with copy/paste buttons. Hope you enjoy it and please share with your friends and colleagues. Would be happy to answer your questions.

Everyone is talking about obsessive attention to details, but few actually do pay due attention. This tool is to help with the most invisible and at the same time quite prominent typographic feature. I like the thoughtful approach and clean and useful implementation that sets an example and inspires to pursue quality. Thank you, Kirill!

Totally love the no bullshit approach to it, keep up the good work buddy

Bookmarked! Thank you for this tool.

Nice job Kirill. Very useful. Keep up the good work!

Every day i'm using Whitespaces+. Very helpful! Thanks Kirill :—)

I mainly use your page to copy the thin space. Formerly I googled “thin space” and copied the symbol from wikipedia or other site. But it's much easier with your site: one click and the space is in my clipboard.
