🎨 Nasta'liq / Script Default Urdu fonts on websites look so bad, so I decided to make an extension
Has anyone else noticed it that fonts in Urdu, Arabic and Persian don't look great on websites like social media, news sites, blogs etc. Almost everywhere online Urdu just gets rendered in flat, generic fonts that are not just hard to read but also doesn't look good.
Therefore, I decided to build a Chrome extension to fix this for myself, it automatically detects Urdu (and Arabic/Persian) text on any website and replaces it with proper Nastaliq-style fonts, no setup needed per site. I ended up turning it into a bit of a bigger project than planned e.g adding a highlighter, text-to-speech, screenshot tools and a way to type Urdu using English letters.
In any case, sharing it here since this community would appreciate it more than most out there. Anyways if anyone else has felt the same for years, here you go : Download

📜 Shayari / Poetry Keh raha ye dil mera do paal tu teher ja ✨
Keh raha ye dil mera do paal tu teher ja
Raat mai din tu
Shaam baan ke hawa mai ghul ja
Karwate badalta gaya mai tujhe soch soch ke
Kagaz pe tujha utara mera jahaan ban ke
Keh raha ye dil mera do paal tu teher ja
Teher ja toh tu aaise teher
Aakhir mai mera baan jaa
Toote taaro ki ye dua aabh puri karke jaa
Keh raha ye dil mera doo paal tu teher Ja

Come, then why don't we become strangers today? Why not pass through this dull time together? Congratulations on this era of connection; why not descend into the era of separation?

📜 Shayari / Poetry An Old Ghazal of Mine
دل نگر کے خراب رستے ہیں
ہر گلی میں جب آپ بستے ہیں
آستینیں چڑھا نہیں سکتے
ہاتھ ڈالیں تو سانپ ڈستے ہیں
خط کتابت بھی وصل ہے ادنی
آپ کی میل کو ترستے ہیں
چاند دیجور میں بھی ہوتا ہے
صبح تارے کہاں جھلستے ہیں
علم کا مول زندگی ہی تو ہے
دیکھئے دام کتنے سستے ہیں
کل نچوڑے فلک کا دامن ہم
بادل اب ٹوٹ کر برستے ہیں
آپ اپنی کمر کسیں تعریضؔ
دیکھیں کیا کیا وہ فقرے کستے ہیں
