There's nothing better than good typography to make your website more readable, searchable, and beautiful. This class starts with the first principles of typography and applies them to the web. By the end of the class, you will know 1) how to choose the right font for the job, 2) how to design your text beautifully without sacrificing accessibility for the visually impaired, and 3) what tools are available to expand your skills and make your type-on-the-web life a whole lot easier. This class presumes basic knowledge of Cascading Style Sheets (CSS).
