    1. To illustrate the sheer number of languages and scripts Adapter World supports, I generated this poster using Python, Drawbot, and our database of language character sets. Send 💌 to orders@ if you want one.

    Printed in three colours, two of which are neon-ish. 🌈😍 Of course it had to use dymaxion (Fuller’s projection) of 🌏 to support the idea of equality. No, it does *not* visualise the spread of the coronavirus!

      Each of the 355 languages Adapter currently supports is represented using its English name as well as an autonym (the name of the language in the language itself). The size of the circle corresponds to the number of speakers.

        Thanks to @ancymonic and @taniachacana for help with the colours. And to @underscoretype and @slmrtins for work on the database (which is still very much WIP).
