Hi @ttyler-twilio - could you provide some more context on why you need access to the Whitney fonts? For some background info, we use Inter as our product design language typeface, not Whitney. Whitney is only licensed to be used on certain domains, and the company is actually moving away from Whitney altogether this year. |

Hey folks, sorry I didn't see this come through. The designs to re-skin our status page specifically use Whitney in the Figma designs. I was unaware that Whitney is being fazed out in favor of Inter. In that case, is there a CDN link I can use to pull inter from somewhere? I managed to pull Whitney from a blog post I found, but given that it's being phased out I will need a less hacky way to pull in Inter if that is possible. |

Clarifying question? Are you using Paste? If so, you will automatically get the fonts downloaded for you when you use the Theme provider. That also future proofs you for when we switch the new Twilio font in the future. |

We are not currently using react in this iteration. We are unsure if we can get react/paste into this vendor tool but will be trying so next sprint to do so. |

@ttyler-twilio In that case, the manual installation page on our docs site has information about loading the right fonts. To use the fonts, you need to add these to the <link rel="preconnect" href="https://assets.twilio.com" crossorigin />
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://assets.twilio.com/public_assets/paste-fonts/main-1.2.0/fonts.css">Note: we are changing the fonts soon, so you will have to update the version manually. |
