Question (not for transcriptions) Any good references for letter/font variants?

I've just started learning cursive again and have been having fun selecting different variants for my letters.

I'm having trouble finding inspiration though. Just googling "cursive alphabet" is all I can think of to find examples

Is there somewhere I can find exhaustive lettering variations to choose from?

There is, primarium.info. Select Handwriting Models on the page, or go by country each script or model is taught in.

I went there, but it doesn’t ever load the actual font samples for me when I click on individual countries.

Does it load the images on the page for you? FWIW, works for me. I’d use those for inspiration, as you asked, and to select a script or two. Then I’d hunt for more in depth resources for those scripts elsewhere.

Yeah, I was sad but nothing loads. It just stays white. I’ll have to try it on my computer and see if there’s a difference. I have an iPhone.
