FontSource releases all of google fonts and more as NPM packages: https://fontsource.org
I just checked and jsdelivr has had like 300 billion requests past month and over 16,813 TB
Really fascinating stuff. I will try to use this from now on! (earlier I was thinking of using something like coollabs.io but I checked its code and I see that the fonts are served through something like bunnycdn from coollabs side which is cool but still)
Honestly, what other things would be better off packaged as npm packages as I never thought that packaging fonts as npm package should make so much sense but here we are!
Bookmarked!!
My brain breaking because I don’t know if that comma denotes thousand or decimal in this context.
Knowing about npm / js I genuinely think that it might in the thousands in this context (I think)
Someone should confirm it I suppose
Insane to think about fonts and all this bandwidth.
With a zero-tracking and no-logging policy, Bunny Fonts helps you stay fully GDPR compliant and puts your user's personal data into their own hands. Additionally, you can enjoy lightning-fast load times thanks to bunny.net's global CDN network to help improve SEO and deliver a better user experience.
Definitely curious as this seems a much better way to handle things ergonomically instead of the way author suggested way
I also feel like hosting your own cdn is definitely easy with this by just downloading npm package or embedding it directly I suppose?
There are definitely other ways to do this too. This discussion was really fun as I saw so many ways to embed fonts other than what I had known but this seems to be a mix and match between privacy and not having to embed it myself.
