Thirteen shipped apps and every scaffold in packages/create-app pulled their
face from Google at request time — Inter through next/font/google in the
examples and the four Next templates, Geist and Geist_Mono in the apps, and in
the seven react-router roots a bare <link> to fonts.googleapis.com. That last
one never even applied what it fetched: nothing in those trees set a family, so
the browser downloaded Inter, spent two preconnects on it, and rendered
system-ui. So `create-app` handed a customer a new docs site whose first act was
a third-party font request for a face that is not ours.
The apps read the family back through --font-sans and --font-mono, which are
next/font's handles rather than names of anything, so those follow the binding
over to --font-zen-sans and --font-zen-mono. Eight of them had only ever bound
the mono and were leaning on Tailwind's default for the text face; they now name
both, or swapping the binding would have dropped the body copy to system-ui
without a word.
Zen and ZenMono are built faces, not constructors — subsetting, display: swap
and fallback metrics are already in them — so the call and its options go away.
Wire project docs sync into pre-build step, add comprehensive dark theme
CSS variables, integrate ProjectSwitcher into sidebar, and add custom
Cloudflare Pages deployment script with batched uploads and retry logic.
