Artwork
Soundscape posters were created for Hushmere with AI image-generation tools. They are illustrative artwork, not photographs documenting the location of a recording. The website uses these posters and real screenshots from the Android app.
Fonts
Fraunces, designed by Phaedra Charles and Flavia Zimbardi, is used for display text. Manrope, designed by Mikhail Sharanda, is used for interface and body text.
Both are licensed under the SIL Open Font License 1.1. The site serves its fonts locally. Read the Fraunces license and Manrope license.
App software
The Android app uses Kotlin, AndroidX Compose, Material Icons, and AndroidX Media3. Material Icons are provided by Google under the Apache License 2.0.
The website is built with Astro and Tailwind CSS. These tools generate static pages; they do not add advertising or analytics to the website.
