Last week I’ve been busy in my spare time writing a tool to preview Google webfonts on a live website. I always found it hard to chose a font from the Google webfonts list so I came up with a more visual way to pick a font for your website.
Fontjuggler let’s you load your (allready existing) website so you can chose the dom elements you want to apply a Google webfont to. Try it on http://www.fontjuggler.com.
The server is running with node.js, Pythonheads supported me with the server setup. It’s pretty easy to make some small changes to your server using (read; hack into) node.js, which I found fun to do because I’m not really a ‘serverside guy’. Roel Kramer helped me out with some regexes, so thanks both for your support! The tool is written in Javascript (jQuery) and uses the Google Webfonts API. I’m no Javascript pro so watch out loading this into your browser
