About the Nuosu SIL font
Nuosu SIL is a sans-serif typeface designed by SIL International, first released to Google Fonts on April 2022. 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 medium x-height at 68% of the cap height, normal letter forms and high stroke contrast. Those three numbers are what the font finder uses to narrow an image down to the closest matches, so you can compare Nuosu SIL against the rest of the library by shape rather than by name.
