This is the central GitHub repository for Google Fonts, containing font binaries, metadata, and tools for uploading new typeface families. It serves as the staging area for fonts and follows stringent licensing structures. The top-level directories indicate the license of all files found within them. Subdirectories are named according to the family name of the fonts within. The /catalog subdirectory contains additional metadata, such as profile texts and portrait/avatar images of font designers, and this is open for contributions and corrections from anyone via GitHub. Since all the fonts available here are licensed with permission to redistribute, subject to the license terms, you can self-host using a variety of third-party projects.

Features

  • Mirrors fonts available on Google Fonts for self‑hosting and distribution
  • Enforces contribution guidelines via project templates and contributor guide
  • Supports a variety of open licenses (e.g., SIL OFL, Apache, Ubuntu)
