# Sniglet — Upstream Source Investigation

## Summary

Sniglet is a fun rounded display typeface originally designed by Haley Fiege (haley@kingdomofawesome.com) in 2008, with contributions from Brenda Gallo (2012) and Pablo Impallari (2013). It was added to Google Fonts on 2010-12-15.

## Designers

- Haley Fiege (original) — kingdomofawesome.com
- Brenda Gallo (contributor, 2012)
- Pablo Impallari (contributor, 2013)

## Repository Search

A search for canonical upstream repositories was conducted on GitHub. The following repository was found:

- **theleagueof/sniglet** (https://github.com/theleagueof/sniglet) — repository owned by The League of Moveable Type, described as "A fun rounded display face that's great for headlines." The README credited Haley Fiege as the designer. The repository contained:
  - `source/Sniglet_Regular.ufo` — UFO source for the Regular weight
  - `source/Sniglet_Regular.vfb` — FontLab source (alongside the UFO)
  - `Sniglet Regular.otf` and `Sniglet Regular.ttf` — compiled fonts

The repository was confirmed as non-archived with an active `master` branch.

Note: The repository contained only the Regular weight UFO source. The ExtraBold weight (present in the Google Fonts family) was added by Pablo Impallari in 2013 and is not represented in this repository.

- **librefonts/sniglet** — a librefonts mirror (excluded per policy).
