Add other font formats and css usage #3

Closed anurag-roy closed 1 year ago

Hey, thanks for creating this amazing free font!

Can we have more formats like woff and woff2 in the release zip like Inter provides? These two formats are very popular choices among web developers, so it would be easier if it just ships in the zip instead of converting all ttf by hand.

Also, would be nice if we could add a .css file with the usage code (especially for the variable version). If required, I am able to help you on this.

Hi! I'm glad you like the typeface :D

Right now, I don't have the appropriate tools for generating webfonts (even though conversion tools are available everywhere on the web, I just thought there are better Python scripts that can do conversions (for some reason)). Besides, the fonts aren't even finished yet. So generating webfonts isn't something I'm prioritising at this moment.

Also if you could help with webfont generation, .css code or anything web-related, I would highly appreciate your effort!

Sure, that makes sense!

I'll definitely help out with the css part, but this would be best done once the font is completely finished. So, I'll wait on that a bit and in the meantime start looking into webfont generation!

woff and woff2 are now available for webfont usage. From release v0.3.1, both font file extensions will be included 👌

For now, I'll close the issue. If there are further problems with webfonts or the css code, feel free to reopen it.
