Typography vs Cyborg: What are the differences?
What is Typography? The visual art of creating written words. It is the art and technique of arranging type to make written language legible, readable, and appealing when displayed. This term is also applied to the style, arrangement, and appearance of the letters, numbers, and symbols created by the process.
What is Cyborg? Display Android Vectordrawables on iOS. It is a partial port of Android's VectorDrawable to iOS. It is intended as a replacement for UIImages, Icon Fonts, and Apple's PDF vector image option.
Typography and Cyborg can be primarily classified as "Fonts" tools.
Some of the features offered by Typography are:
- Character Sets
- Uppercase Style
- Number Style
On the other hand, Cyborg provides the following key features:
- Full theming support of individual elements of an illustration, beyond simple image tinting or changing the text color in an Icon Font
- Ability to use one asset for both platforms, simplifying the design -> engineering pipeline
- Assets are resolution independent
