As you may or may not have noticed, I just updated my blog to use my own new typeface: Bernie Sans. It is in the final stretches of development, but I’m pretty excited to share it with you all!

Shaw-Spell web UI
I’ve been tinkering away on Shaw-Spell, improving the way lemmas, forms and word senses are grouped in the dictionary. But a more interesting change is perhaps the web UI I created for the dictionary this weekend.

Shaw-Spell
Tl;dr:I have created native Shavian spell-checking and dictionary services for macOS, now available here! As you will have gathered from my writings here and on Reddit, I’ve been tinkering away on some tools for the Shavian alphabet: The two tools I found were missing from the arsenal were a dictionary and a spell checker.

Shaw Type
Having gotten more and more serious about Shavian of late, I found myself wanting to practice typing using my favourite Shavian keyboard layout. I couldn’t find a tool, so I tasked Claude code with building one for me. The results are here: Shaw-type. I am already seeing the benefits of practicing with it: I am…
