Preload Newsreader heading font on home page using the media=print/onload technique. Full font bundle loaded in noscript for no-JS fallback. Improves LCP by prioritizing the critical heading font.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Performance
    • Improved font loading for faster page rendering.
    • Added a fallback stylesheet for environments without JavaScript.

- Preload Newsreader headings font (font weights 600/700/400italic) with media=print/onload trick
- Full font bundle in noscript for no-JS fallback
- Reduces LCP by prioritizing critical heading font

@dominicusin Thanks for sending me some feedback. Unfortunately, I hit an error while trying to use the custom Copilot setup steps configured for this repository. The error I am seeing is:

no supported setup-steps job found in your workflow file. Please ensure you have a job named copilot-setup-steps. For more details, see https://gh.io/copilot/actions-setup-steps

Once you or someone with the necessary access fixes the problem, please let me know in a comment and I'll try again. Thanks!

Review Change Stack

Walkthrough

The homepage now preloads Newsreader, loads its stylesheet asynchronously, and provides a full font stylesheet when JavaScript is unavailable.

Changes

Font loading

Layer / File(s) Summary
Asynchronous font loading
layouts/index.html
The font block preloads Newsreader and switches a print-media stylesheet to active media after loading. The noscript fallback loads the full font families without JavaScript.

Estimated code review effort: 1 (Trivial) | ~3 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 62046

Homepage fonts load asynchronously, but the critical Newsreader stylesheet is not actually preloaded and JavaScript-enabled visitors may fall back for Inter and JetBrains Mono. This is mergeable with owner awareness, though the intended LCP improvement and typography consistency are incomplete.

Poem

I’m a rabbit watching fonts take flight
Newsreader hops in before the night
Inter follows on a quiet stream
Mono waits inside a fallback dream
No scripts? The full burrow stays bright

🚀 Performance & Scalability | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Use a true preload for the critical font stylesheet.

rel="stylesheet" with media="print" loads the stylesheet asynchronously, but it does not create a preload. The changed block therefore does not implement the stated preload objective. Use rel="preload" as="style" and switch it to stylesheet in onload, or update the objective and comment to describe asynchronous loading.

Proposed fix
-  <link href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css2?family=Newsreader:ital,wght@0,600;0,700;1,400&display=swap" rel="stylesheet" media="print" >
+  <link rel="preload" as="style" href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css2?family=Newsreader:ital,wght@0,600;0,700;1,400&display=swap" >

Load Inter and JetBrains Mono when JavaScript is enabled. The <noscript> fallback is skipped, and the active request loads only Newsreader. The font tokens still require Inter and JetBrains Mono. No other stylesheet loads these families on this path.
