CSS3 Foundations Chapter 3 Lesson 2: Google Fonts Page Load Indicator - Cannot Find?

[Drew2]

Hello Stefan,

I've been looking for the past 15 minutes for the page load indicator in Google Fonts.  I can't find anything on Stack Overflow about the page load indicator in Google Fonts.  I also haven't found anything in Google Font's FAQ on this.  Any idea what is going on?  It seems like font speed is important.

Thank you for your assistance

Could you expand on this?

In the video there is a page which has a page load indicator, with colors of green, yellow, and red (It sort of looks like a clock).  If I remember, the colors indicate how fast the font will load.  I cannot find the webpage on Google Fonts with that indicator, nor anything else having to do with the page load speed of any of the Google Fonts.

Did you do a google search for it?

https://developers.google.com/fonts/faq - found that.  It says "The page load time indicator, located in the upper-right of the selection drawer, shows an estimation of how your selection will affect the overall load time (ex: slow, moderate, fast) of your page based on the number of families, styles, and scripts you’ve chosen in the “Customize” tab."

It all sounds great, until I look for it.  I've clicked on everything I can think of in the top right, and no mention of the page load time indicator is to be found.

 

Best,

Andrew

Hmm ... I wouldn't be too concerned with this since fonts are tiny files. We are in the age of 4k video download and so fonts are barely a blip in file size.

Got it Thanks :).
