About the Frijole font
Frijole is a display typeface designed by Sideshow, first released to Google Fonts on December 2011. It ships with 1 weight and is licenced under the SIL Open Font License, which permits commercial use in websites, apps, documents and print without attribution or payment.
Its measured character is a high x-height at 88% of the cap height, expanded letter forms and low stroke contrast. Those three numbers are what the font finder uses to narrow an image down to the closest matches, so you can compare Frijole against the rest of the library by shape rather than by name.
Want to check whether Frijole is the face in a screenshot you have? Run it through the free font identifier, or browse the full library of 1,935 open-source fonts for something with a similar feel.
