> This typesetting is fantastic. Love the style.

I dislike this kind of typesetting, the sans-serif font is nearly unreadable, and the math displays are just slightly smaller than the regular text, with the same font. WHY? I would love to have access to the .tex source to compile it in a saner style.

The drawings are excellent, though. I'm enjoying the ones on Morse theory.

Not a fan either. It commits the same sin as the typical Computer Modern typically used in TeX but to a worse degree: far too light for easy reading. IIRC it's name is either Iwona or Kurier. For free fonts for typesetting in TeX, I would recommend one of the Times-based fonts.

I personally typesetting typically in EB Garamond with a very new free Unicode math font called Garamond Math, but the setup is quite elaborate.
