Are there any free ones? On Sun, May 24, 2015 at 11:13 PM Alexej Yaroshevich <

@tonsky Some well-known: https://cdnjs.com/, http://www.jsdelivr.com/, or even github.io (https://pages.github.com/) 😼 |
Also try to get hosted on https://www.google.com/fonts |
👍 This would be great to have on Google Fonts, at the very least. |
A link to remember https://github.com/google/fonts/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md |
I can add it to jsDelivr for you, including automated updating (since you use releases. I think it would be easiest to have your GitHub folder like this:
Don't bother with EOT or SVG fonts anymore please. WOFF2 covers over half of browser usage, so that should try to load first. |
Thanks! I’ll try to get webfonts for next release On Tue, Feb 16, 2016 at 1:51 AM Tom Byrer notifications@github.com wrote:

Welcome. (IIRC Some browsers have a bug that tries to d/l all font files, even if not used. That's why Google Fonts sniffs browser agent, & serves a custom CSS. jsDelivr can't sniff; sorry.) |
Meanwhile can we use tools like mentioned https://github.com/google/woff2, and self host converted fonts without breaking the OFL terms? |
rawgit.com looks great 😃 Direct URL to latest version: |
@simon-matt Not a particularly good idea. See the front page:
Rawgit only makes sense for tagged releases and that would have to be updated manually. |
Distribution as npm package would work for me, like in https://github.com/KyleAMathews/typefaces |
Hi, I wonder if there's a plan on adding Fira Code to Google Fonts. Thx! upd: I noticed google/fonts/issues/1460, sorry for bothering |
Given that rawgit is closing down (https://rawgit.com/), would it be possible to publish the latest version to npm (https://www.npmjs.com/package/firacode), such that the README.md would use unpkg in the sample? |
Looks like someone else has that package name, but @tonsky could contact the user and npm to get access. |
JsDelivr also supports GitHub CDN like RawGit did, as another option. |
As Rawgit is closing example links will stop to function at the end of October 2019. I've chosen jsdelivr over unpkg as it's using GitHub as a source like Rawgit, rather than NPM, and have a bigger [market share](https://w3techs.com/technologies/comparison/cd-jsdelivr,cd-unpkg). Related issue #18.
This font is now available via Google Fonts: https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Fira+Code |
It would be great to use the most actual version of this on web sites right from CDN.
What you think about it?
