Mana is a complete set of Magic: the Gathering mana, tap, and card type symbols as a pictographic font. You can use this font anywhere you want to display mana and tap symbols—in your MtG app or website, documents, card images, anything!
The easiest way to get Mana into your project is to use either the Bower or NPM packages, depending on your package manager:
```shell
$> bower install mana
```
```shell
$> npm install mana-font
```
We've registered `mana` with [Bower](https://bower.io/#getting-started) and 'mana-font' with [NPM](https://docs.npmjs.com/getting-started/what-is-npm). Just install using the above commands in your project and you can edit anything as needed.
You can also download the [zip file](https://github.com/andrewgioia/Mana/archive/master.zip) here at Github and use the font files and CSS files in your project as needed.
Each mana symbol has its own font character. Display them in a manner similar to [Keyrune](http://andrewgioia.github.io/Keyrune) using the `<i class="ms ms-g"></i>` element and class syntax. Class name codes are based on textual mana symbol codes (like g for Green or 3 for, well, {3}).
To use Mana, move the web font files to your `/fonts` directory and include the mana.css stylesheet in your `<head>`:
If you'd like to use Mana as a desktop font (e.g., in a Word document) there are a few steps and things to know. First, to get it loaded on your system just download the [latest zip file](https://github.com/andrewgioia/Mana/archive/master.zip), extract it, and navigate to `Mana-master\fonts`. In there, install the `mana.ttf` font (typically by double clicking it).
Mana uses [private use characters](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Private_Use_Areas) for the font glyphs so you unfortunately can't normally "type" anything in Word to see the symbols. To do so, open up the [Mana Cheatsheet](http://andrewgioia.github.io/Mana/cheatsheet.html) and copy the symbol you want, then paste it into Word (or whatever software you're using).
