In this short animated feature that was created working with friends at Akamai, I describe some of the perceived performance issues associated with web fonts. Perhaps you might be able to tell: this is not my voice.
Zach Leatherman is a builder for the web at Font Awesome and the creator of Build Awesome (née
Eleventy/11ty), an award-winning open source website generator. He measures website performance with speedlify and at one point became too fixated on web fonts. He has given 89 talks in nine different countries at events like Beyond Tellerrand, Smashing Conference, Jamstack Conf, CSSConf, and The White House. Formerly part of CloudCannon, Netlify, Filament Group, NEJS CONF, and NebraskaJS. Learn more about Zach »
