About the Jaro font
Jaro is a sans-serif typeface designed by Agyei Archer and Céline Hurka and Mirko Velimirović, first released to Google Fonts on March 2024. It ships with 1 weight · variable 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 83% of the cap height, normal letter forms and medium stroke contrast. Those three numbers are what the font finder uses to narrow an image down to the closest matches, so you can compare Jaro against the rest of the library by shape rather than by name.
