You've started noticing letters everywhere — the chipped Art Deco numerals above a dry cleaner, the chunky slab-serif on a 1970s diner menu board, the hand-painted script on a bodega awning. **Font Hunt** is a single-page app for logging interesting typography you spot in the wild. Build a personal field notebook where each entry captures: - A short **name or nickname** for the find (e.g. "Rusty Laundromat Gothic") - The **location or context** where you saw it (street, city, type of signage) - A **style tag** chosen from a small fixed set: Serif, Sans-Serif, Script, Display, Monospace, Hand-Painted, Other - A **mood or color note** (one line of freeform text) - The **date spotted** (defaults to today) All entries are saved to `localStorage` so the collection survives a page refresh. The main view shows a scrollable card grid of all logged finds. Each card displays the nickname in a Google Fonts web font that roughly matches the chosen style tag — pick one free font per tag and apply it automatically. Users can delete any entry and filter the grid by style tag using a small tab or button row at the top. No images, no uploads, no backend — just a beautifully typeset little catalogue of letterforms found out in the world.

Problem Solving & Design A
The app is a well-considered field notebook with live font preview, contextual empty states, search, sort, and a two-step delete — all fitting the brief's catalogue metaphor closely.
Completeness B+
Core features are all present and functional, but storage write failures are caught silently in the grid path without surfacing a visible error to the user in every branch.
Technical Craft C
The codebase is cleanly split into a pure domain module with automated tests and a DOM adapter, but no explicit type definitions are used anywhere in the project.
