+
+Hi everyone, welcome to **10th** devlog of **Rakugo Project** in year 2024.
+If you find my projects useful, you can support the project via **[Patreon]**.
+Thank you very much, if you decided to do!
+
+## Update on Incremental Updates
+
+Since a lot of time has passed since the previous devlog,
+you might have thought that the switch to the Incremental Updates system was unsuccessful.
+The truth is that the assignment I was working on got delayed and only finished at the beginning of this month.
+
+The switch to the Incremental Updates system itself was successful,
+but it took some time, because if someone checks the commits to Godot Font Icons,
+they will see that they are mostly fixes, with only one new feature added in the meantime.
+
+## Rakugo Nodes v1.0
+
+So what is Rakugo Nodes, and why didn't I say anything about it before?
+
+Well, it's a project that happened and will happen as an incident of other projects.
+Because it's an up-to-date collection of different nodes,
+that my other projects use, but which can also be used separately.
+
+The first such node is **ButtonContainer**, 
+it is used by Godot Fonts Icons and will also be used by the next version of **AdvancedText**.
+**ButtonContainer** is a node that allows you to easily create a button with non-standard content,
+because it is a **Container** that looks and behaves like **Button**, but does not inherit from it.
+
+Here are examples of its use:

+
+## Godot Icons Fonts v1.0
+
+***Compatible with Godot 4.1+***
+
+Makes easy to find and use icons from popular icon-fonts in your Godot project.
+
+## What problems it solves:
+
+### You only needs this addon - as you don't have:
+1. to go online find font
+1. then find icon
+1. check icon licence - and maybe you need to search for another
+1. finally download it
+
+### Better alterative to Godot's build emojis as
+- to use them you need to find unicode online
+- they don't work on some platforms for example Web
+- they are outdated
+
+## Included
+
+### Dependencies
+- [Rakugo Nodes](https://github.com/Jeremi360/Rakugo-Nodes)

+
+### Singleton
+**IconsFonts** is singleton for easier use of icons anywhere in your project.
+
+## In Editor
+It's adds **IconsFinder** (docked to bottom by default).
+So you can find the icons easily, click on icon to get its name to clipboard.
+It can be in dock mode at bottom or in window mode.
+
+That can be switched in Godot's **Tools** menu.
+![](https://github.com/rakugoteam/Godot-Icons-Fonts/raw/godot-4/.assets/menu-tools.png)
+
+Or using *Command Pallet* (`Ctrl+Shift+P`)
+![](https://github.com/rakugoteam/Godot-Icons-Fonts/raw/godot-4/.assets/command-pallet.png)
+
+*docked mode*

+
+*window mode*
+![](https://github.com/rakugoteam/Godot-Icons-Fonts/raw/godot-4/.assets/emojis-window.png)
+
+## Using it with RichTextLabel
+You can use the icons in RichTextLabel.
+
+![](https://github.com/rakugoteam/Godot-Icons-Fonts/raw/godot-4/.assets/rich-text-icons.png)
+
+```gdscript
+@tool
+extends RichTextLabel
+
+@export_multiline
+var text_with_icons: String:
+  set(value):
+    if !is_node_ready(): await ready
+    text_with_icons = value
+    bbcode_enabled = true
+    text = IconsFonts.parse_text(value)
+
+  get: return text_with_icons
+
+func _ready():
+  bbcode_enabled = true
+  text = IconsFonts.parse_text(text_with_icons)
+```
+
+## Exporting
+For emojis to work in exported projects,
+you need add `*.json` files to include files settings:
+![](https://github.com/rakugoteam/Godot-Icons-Fonts/raw/godot-4/.assets/export.png)
+
+## Know Issues
+- Window mode is init with empty icons render*
+
+\**To fix just change back-and-forward to icon font you want to use.*
+
+## Compatibility
+This addon is replacing our previous to addons:
+- [Godot Material Icons](https://github.com/rakugoteam/Godot-Material-Icons)
+- [Emojis For Godot](https://github.com/rakugoteam/Emojis-For-Godot)
+
+We had broken backward compatibility with them for those reasons:
+- In feature we want to support more IconsFonts so we can use `[icon:icons-name]` in text parsing.
+- We redesigned how addon works under the hood
+- We had too rename nodes
+
+**You can [Download it from here](https://github.com/rakugoteam/Godot-Icons-Fonts/releases/).**
+
+_Merry Christmas, and see you in Happy New Year!_
