A microsite that shows off fonts designed for writing code.

Running this site.

• npm install
• npm run serve

Adding a font

• Start server (see above)
• If the font is open source, put a copy of the font in the fonts folder. At the very least a .woff2 file in a folder of the fonts name. e.g. /src/assets/fonts/NewFont/NewFont.woff2
• Make a stylesheet that gets that font ready to use in that font folder. e.g. /src/assets/fonts/NewFont/NewFont.css
• Add a file like new-font.md to /src/fonts. Add the font's information. Mark the URL of the stylesheet from the previous step in the stylesheet_url field, relative to /src/assets/fonts/. If the URL is absolute, i.e. not added to the repo, add a stylesheet_absolute: true field. See this one as an example.
• To preview what will be screenshot, the URL structure is like: http://localhost:8080/code_samples/html/?font=Anonymous%20Pro&theme=dark
• Run the screenshots! This is a local-only process. At the command line: FONT='consolas' npm run screenshots. You can change FONT to a font name matching the name of the Markdown file that you created.

Then make a Pull Request for it. You should be able to see a built preview on Netlify as part of the PR.
