On Tour @ #perfnow 5/6 with Zach Leatherman
This interview is part of our six-part series On Tour @ #perfnow. At the beginning of November, we attended a new conference in Amsterdam called performance.now(). performance.now() is put together by no-one less than Steve Souders and Tim Kadlec, two well known experts in the performance circus. And they teamed up with the people running the CSS Day. What they put together was nothing short of amazing. They had 16 of the most talented speakers flying in from all over the world, and we got the opportunity to interview a few of them! Zach Leatherman: Font-Loading on the Web Font-Loading on the Web has always been painful and you needed to wrap your head around the topic intensively. These days have changed – but then again it’s still complex. Zach explains what some quirks are and how to tackle the problems best. Finally we touch the very promising idea of a streaming file format for fonts.
