Fonts that I like to use frequently

October 2022 • 177 words • 1 min read

While there are a lot of free fonts available on Google Fonts¹, there are a few fonts that I think are special.

1. Epilogue

• Epilogue on Google Fonts
• Used by Soopr

2. DM Sans

If you like Circular Std (used by Spotify and Netflix), you will like DM Sans. I think it is the closest equivalent to Circular.

• DM Sans on Google Fonts
• Used by my blog and apicagent

3. Manrope

I like Proxima Nova. While Manrope is not exactly similar to it, however, it surely gives me the same vibes.

• Manrope on Google Fonts
• Used by Humangous

4. Poppins

Poppins is a geometric font with a typical ‘a’ - very clean and beautiful.

• Poppins on Google Fonts
• Used by APIC Blocks

(APIC Blocks also uses Cal Sans by cal.com for headings - really goes well with Poppins.

5. Lexend

Lexend font was created to improve reading experience. Learn more on lexend.com

• Lexend on Google Fonts
• Used by Chhoti Si Kahani for English text

6. Outfit

Outfit has a typical ‘t’ and in general a playful character. Yet, it comes out to be very readable.

• Outfit on Google Fonts
• Used by APIC Ping

Other Fonts

A few other fonts that I like:

1. Mukta for Devanagari
2. Hammersmith One for headings
3. Space Grotesk
4. Inter (very good font, however, as a result also heavily used)

Also, a special mention to Monospace fonts that I frequently use:

1. Roboto Mono
2. DM Mono
3. Space Mono
4. Courier Prime (better version of Courier and Courier New)
