Integration in one terminal command.

We use Fontsource package integrations to serve fonts directly from self-hosted npm packages. This eliminates third-party trackers, avoids slow external DNS handshakes, and ensures zero layout shifts on page load.

1. Install the NPM package

Every font is versioned and distributed via npm. Install it with your preferred package manager:

pnpm add @fontsource-variable/inter

2. Import in your stylesheet

Import the stylesheet in your CSS entrypoint or Tailwind configuration. No link tags or script injection required:

@import '@fontsource-variable/inter/opsz.css';
Similarity Search

Find alternatives, not just synonyms.

If a font has restricted licensing, lacks necessary language weights, or is overused in your industry, FontSide maps similar structural and stylistic designs. Get matched to open-source alternatives that preserve the visual essence of your brand.
