Basic Jigsaw Starter-Kit

A very basic Jigsaw project starter-kit extending the initial default setup provided by Jigsaw's init command.

Features

• Browsersync
• Source-Maps generation
• Web Fonts, self-hosted or via CDN)

Web Fonts

Custom web fonts are supported using locally available files (self-hosted) or using a CDN (i.e. Google Fonts).

Self-hosted

First install the font package via npm from the project root, i.e. Barlow from Fontsource:

npm i -D @fontsource/barlow

Update the main stylesheet source/_assets/css/main.css to include the custom web font definition & font files:

@import '@fontsource/barlow';

Add the font to Tailwind's theme in tailwind.config.js by extending it:

// ...

module.exports = {

  // ...

  theme: {

    extend: {

      fontFamily: {

        // CSS class name to use the font, automatically prefixed with 'font-'.

        'custom-barlow': [ 

          // Font reference name, see the font's documentation or source files.

          'Barlow',

          // Fallback font(s) to use if custom font is unavailable.

           ...defaults.fontFamily.sans
        ],

        // ...

      },

    },

  },

  // ...

};

You may now reference the new font in your template files by using its CSS class name, e.g.:

<h1 class="font-custom-barlow text-green-600 font-4xl">
  Howdy, Pardner!
