The Hakuran typeface is an open source typeface designed from scratch.
The goal is to provide a free, open font for use in open source projects as well as on the web. And eventually reaching full coverage of the entire unicode range.
The typeface is designed with readability and education in mind. This means that glyphs are designed to look like they do when they are written in hand, as humans perceive and replicate them.
