Font selection was a real issue while coming up with a design, and finally three major fonts were selected and are - as of now - provided as web fonts.
Everything is working fine, but...
fonts add around 250kb to the website's weight
they add build complexity (if/when further optimisation is applied, see #34)
external dependencies mean possible licensing issues (this should have been covered during selection already, but license terms might change and have to be watched; see #30)
Flash of invisible Text (FOIT) / Flash of unstyled Text (FOUT) will happen!
As an alternative, system font stacks may be used. The major drawback is loosing some control of the actual design, as the available fonts may deviate heavily between different users/devices.
