Astro Font Picker    

Astro Font Picker is a dev toolbar integration that lets you try out different fonts on your site. It uses Google Fonts to load over 1000 open source fonts. Use the up/down keys to quickly cycle through different fonts, or pick one from the list.

!astro-font-picker

Installation

$3

``
npx astro add astro-font-picker
`

$3

`
npm install astro-font-picker
`

Add the following to your astro.config.mjs file:

`js
import astroFontPicker from 'astro-font-picker';

export default {
integrations: [
astroFontPicker(),
// other integrations
],
};
`

Usage

Astro Font Picker will show up as a new icon in the dev toolbar, which is enabled by default in Astro 4.0 and above.

!astro-font-picker

Filter the fonts by type (optional), and then choose a font family. The font will be applied to the body element of your site.

If you have font families applied to elements lower than the body element, it will not override those fonts unless you enable the Override All Styles toggle.

> Hint: You can use the up/down arrow keys to quickly cycle through the fonts.

$3

This toggle controls whether the selected font is applied to the page. It is enabled by default.

$3

This toggle will override all font-family styles on your site with the selected font. Without this enabled, any font families applied to elements lower than the body element will not be overridden.

The main reason for having the Override All Styles toggle disabled is to maintain the font style of specific elements or sections of your site. This way, when you use the font picker to select a font for other areas, it won't override fonts you have already decided on.

$3

This is the stylesheet link and CSS that you can copy and paste into your site to permanently install the font. For example:

In your head element:

`html


`

In your CSS:

`css
h1 {
font-family: Itim, cursive;
}
``

$3

This link will open the selected font in Google Fonts.

$3

All the settings (enabled, override, font type, and font family) are saved in session storage, so they are not lost when the page refreshes during development.

Other

This project is based off the Fontable library, which is a standalone font picker that can be used on any website.
