㊗️ Universal Webfont loader - Unfonts

npm

This plugin goes beyond just generating font-face rules - it also takes care of link preload and prefetch, optimizing font loading for a faster and more efficient user experience.

Unfonts currently supports popular font providers like Typekit, Google Fonts, and Fontsource, as well as custom fonts. This gives you the flexibility to choose from a vast range of fonts and seamlessly integrate them into your projects.

With Unfonts, you no longer have to manually manage font files and font-face rules, or worry about slow loading times. Our package does all the heavy lifting for you, so you can focus on creating amazing content with ease.
