I love this extension — it's similar to WhatTheFont but far more powerful and informative. Plus you can actually use whatever fonts you find! WHAT!?
Axel Corjon
Dear fellow Product hunters I’m Axel Corjon, Founder of Fonts Ninja 🙋‍♂️ I’m really excited today to share with the ProductHunt community a huge update of our Chrome browser extension. Fonts Ninja has been helping thousands of designers for years. Our browser extension lets you precisely identify fonts on any website. Our Fonts DNA algorithm identifies fonts and displays the real name of a font (avoiding wrong identification based on CSS declaration only). You also can check font properties (size, letter spacing, etc.) and get more information about a font. ⭐️ We updated a lot of stuff, but the main new feature is the ability to bookmark fonts you discovered on websites. You can now bookmark fonts and manage your bookmarks with boards... right within the extension! 🚀 We also speed up the discovery process allowing the extension to be nearly twice as fast as the previous version... while still getting accurate font identification with our Fonts DNA algorithm. I am super excited to be on Product Hunt today! I am available to answer all your questions 👨‍💻

@axelcorjon congrats on the launch! Curious if you'll ever be able to apply your Fonts DNA algorithm to images?
Axel Corjon
@chrismessina Thanks for the hunt 🙏 We're working on having a font identification on images, still a lot a work to do, but definitely a feature that will be available :)

I'm using Fonts Ninja for 4 years now. The work crafted by @axelcorjon is awesome. Definitely a "must-extension" 🔥
Axel Corjon
@clementfalchier thank you so much 🙏

I use WhatFont but there are a things it doesn't show such as letter spacing. I find myself having to then use CSS Peeper or inspect the element to get everything I need. I am excited to give Fonts Ninja a whirl!
Axel Corjon
@sarrah hope you'l like it :)

Didn't work. I added it multiple times, but every time it installs, then it disappears from my Chrome browser interface. It's turned on, and it never comes back- almost like a real ninja except way more useless.
Axel Corjon
@chriscchan maybe it's the last chrome update that hides all extensions behind the little puzzle piece icon? Please contact me axel@fonts.ninja we'll sort that out :)

This extension so useful! It has completely changed the way we work with fonts, both in terms of benchmarking, of pure creation or even of front-end development follow-up.
Andreas Wik
This is great. Been using WhatFont for really long and the user experience is kinda meh. Just installed this one now - love it!
Axel Corjon
@andreaswik awesome, glad you like it :) Also, WhatFont is just displaying font names based on CSS declaration, our algorithm is far more complex and gets way better results ;)
Marion Phelebon
This smart tool is just awesome... I'm using it since the very beginning (4-5 years) and it's so so useful!
Axel Corjon
@marion_phelebon thanks Marion, glad you like it :)

So there's this and FontFace Ninja? different developers? Quite a close app naming match...
Axel Corjon
@visualintentau Same app, same maker (we just changed the lead dev) :) we just renamed it last year because the project is getting bigger and "fontface" was limiting it to webfonts :)
