Packaging Font Awesome for Meteor.js, the most popular full-stack JavaScript framework on GitHub.
This package efficiently only loads the woff
font file, which is the only requirement for modern browsers. All wrapper packages you might still
find on Atmosphere bloat the client with unnecessary font files (SVG, EOT, TTF).
If you need those files for compatibility with old browsers that still somehow run Meteor (IE8, iOS < 5 or Android < 4.4), please see the fontawesome-compat package.
If you're new to Meteor, here's what the excitement is all about - watch the first two minutes; you'll be hooked by 1:28.
That screencast is from 2012. In the meantime, Meteor has become a mature JavaScript-everywhere web development framework with numerous advantages over all other single-page application frameworks.
If you encounter an issue while using this package, please CC @dandv when you file it in this repo.
- Tests that font(s) are downloadable
- Visual check
- Read the
src/test.htmlfile into the test directly instead of via rawgit - how to do this with TinyTest? - Explain the magic behind how Meteor resolves CSS
@font-face src url('../fonts/...')to the correct/packages/.../fonts/...path - Add the woff2 font before woff when it becomes available
