Faster Web Fonts for Better Performance

Web fonts can block rendering and increase LCP. Optimizing font loading improves speed and user experience.

Strategies

• Preload critical fonts.
• Use variable fonts for fewer requests.
• Apply font-display: swap to avoid invisible text.

<Highlight code={<link rel="preload" href="/fonts/Inter-VariableFont_wght.ttf" as="font" type="font/ttf" crossorigin />} language="html" />

Takeaway

Optimized fonts reduce load times and improve the perceived performance of your website.
