This patch removes the
webfontloader
JavaScript library in favor of usinglink
tags to load web font assets.webfontloader
had its last release in mid-2017, and we were using it in a very simple way.This patch also makes the following related changes:
woff
, which is widely supported: https://caniuse.com/woffdjangoproject/static/fonts/
FiraMono-Medium
font variant assets since this variant was not being usedstyleguide.html
template@bmispelon This is a particularly exciting PR for me because it drops ~7.7 megabytes from the repository. The diff is huge, but the actual changes are small.
If this gets merged, some nice follow-up changes could be:
.woff2
font assets instead of.woff
(it's safe)If there's anything I can do to help test this, please let me know. It looks good to me locally.
