[D7] Discuss MVP options for Fonts #54

Open jenter opened 8 years ago

@fureigh this might be discussed in various directions on the roadmap, but might consider the following MVP with fonts:

Not include the fonts/ folder within the default build, but allowing instructions as sufficient
Providing instructions for google fonts as local or served externally.

I am raising this for discussion since the overhead of including these fonts might be unneeded in most prime build cases.

A potential issue with not including the fonts is they are already declared in the CSS with @font-face rules. If the fonts are missing they will throw 404 errors. The @font-face rules could be removed, but that introduces a maintenance issue when the design standards CSS is updated.
