Firava

Firava adapts Mozilla's open source Fira Sans typeface into a variable version.

View the sample page.

Download the .woff2, .tff, and Base64 (embedded in .css) fonts from the /fonts folder here.

Features

  • The typeface includes regular and italic styles.
  • Currently, the typeface has a single variable axis, weight, which ranges from 100 (Thin) to 900 (Black), with a default weight of 400.
  • The source version of Fira has nearly 1,700 characters. Firava is currently limited to just over 450.
  • Current version: 5.000 (Previous Fira Sans version was 4.202).

Tools

I'm using the following tools to produce Firava:

I've found Travis Kochel's I Can Variable Font super-helpful throughout this process.

Wakamai Fondue is indispensable for testing variable fonts.

And I used my own Glytter tool to view/copy/paste the full character set for the sample page.

Credits/Licensing

Firava was produced by Greg Gibson (hellogreg.org). I generated it for a simple reason: I love Fira Sans and wanted to use it for a project, but I needed a variable font!
