Loading fonts via web component

I made a silly little <google-font> web component to load fonts from Google Fonts, I think it’s kinda fun.

See the Pen google-font web component by Kevin Kipp (@third774) on CodePen.

Use it in markdown? #

In Jake Lazaroff’s article Web Components Will Outlive Your JavaScript Framework he says:

But Markdown has a secret weapon: you can write HTML inside of it! That means any fancy interactive diagrams I wanted to add would be just as portable as my the rest of my Markdown as long as I could express them as plain HTML tags.

This got me thinking — dang, I could use this in my markdown files to spice things up a bit!
