Typography Calculator Skill

Purpose

Calculate typography scales and metrics for design systems, including modular scales, line heights, and responsive font sizing.

Capabilities

  • Generate type scales (modular, golden ratio, major third, etc.)
  • Calculate optimal line heights for readability
  • Generate responsive font sizing with fluid typography
  • Calculate vertical rhythm and baseline grids
  • Generate font-size/line-height pairings
  • Create typography tokens

Target Processes

  • design-system.js
  • component-library.js (typographySystemDesignTask)
  • responsive-design.js (responsiveTypographySpacingTask)

Integration Points

  • type-scale.com algorithms
  • CSS clamp() for fluid typography
  • Modular scale calculations

  scaleRatio: 'perfect-fourth',
  steps: 6,
  fluidTypography: true,
  minViewport: 320,
  maxViewport: 1440
});
