hey guys, i have issue with unicode symbols in web compose (wasm):
is it possible to load some modern font?

[agrosner]

You can have webpack bundle font resources and then you can require them and load them as any other url into a font object

[deviant]

doesn't work. also setting typefaces via MaterialTheme does nothing on web platform

[agrosner]

ill pull up an example

[deviant]

i managed it with platform specific typeface loader

actual suspend fun platformTypography(): Typography = Typography(
    defaultFontFamily = FontFamily(
        Font(
            identity = "roboto",
            data = loadBytesFromPath("Roboto-Regular.ttf")
        )
    )
)

[deviant]

would be awesome if this code works in common module so we don't have repeat it on all platforms

[agrosner]

oh nice. yeah its probably a WIP

[agrosner]

what contructor is that Font in ?

@deviant if you don't mind, what's the current state of Compose Web canvas in your experience?

[deviant]

@ESchouten well it works 🙂 i have some performance issue in firefox. but chrome works fine. you can check this project https://github.com/mykola-dev/Tetris

@deviant Lack of keyboard support is the first thing I noticed, but 🤯 this is amazing!
