Key Benefits

• Performance: Self-hosting eliminates extra DNS resolution and TCP connection latency required by CDNs.
• Version Locking: Fonts are version-locked via NPM, preventing unexpected updates from breaking your production layout.
• Privacy: Self-hosting avoids font usage tracking by third-party providers.
• Offline Support: Fonts are available locally, which is essential for Progressive Web Apps (PWAs) and offline environments.
• Extensibility: Supports fonts from ecosystems beyond just Google Fonts.
