About the Rakkas font
Rakkas is a display typeface designed by Zeynep Akay, first released to Google Fonts on June 2016. 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 67% 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 Rakkas against the rest of the library by shape rather than by name.
