Interesting! Great job guys! How do you handle rogue fonts rendering into a web font?

@chanjohnathan Great question! It’s always best to try it out to be sure before you go live with your website, but here’s what we do: If this font is free and on an online repo - We’ll css import from there. If you have downloaded & installed a font - We’ll upload it, assuming it's a format supported by browsers, i.e .ttf (Make sure you have a proper license to the fonts you use online) If you’re using an OS fonts (i.e Avenir, Helvetica, SF) - We won’t upload it, so users on windows would probably not see it. Better to avoid these for license reasons anyway.

@avishic Thanks for the response! FYI, I updated Launchpad via Auto-Layout and upon restarting it completely bugged out my Sketch v42 (36781). All my Sketch files opened but weren't showing anything and I was getting a permanent beach ball as well. I tried uninstalling the plugin via Finder but no luck. Had to use Time Machine to restore an older version of my plugins folder.

@chanjohnathan OMG, Thanks for letting us know and thanks to Steve Jobs for the Time Machine 😅 We'll look into it, sorry for that. If you wanna retry, go to plugins folder, delete Auto-Layout, restart Sketch and reinstall, should be safe..

@avishic Alright, I'll give it a try! Let me know if you need me to provide any system info and what not.

2 questions. Does it allow me to use any html5 site and customize it? Webflow does not allow this. Can we export the site or do we have to use your hosting? Cheers!
Avishay Cohen
@_pascalandy Export full website - Very soon. Customizing an existing website - Sorry, nope.

@avishic Where can we stay in touch? I'll try it when we can export HTML :)
Avishay Cohen
@_pascalandy You can now export code if you're a Pro user - You'll get a pack of HTML, CSS, Media & Fonts, ready to deploy :) Also, we can stay in touch on our Facebook group updating there all the time https://www.facebook.com/groups/...

I really enjoyed the Launchpad. I wish it could be a bit cheaper. So I can purchase it more in the long run. I would like to see it improve more in the future. In terms of making the linking of each artboards more user friendly instead of having to drag the line all the way to different artboards make it so it's less of a stretch for users. I truely enjoy everything sketch has to offer for the front end design. But back end wise, the case files are a bit difficult to decipher. Maybe figure out a way while designing in the front end the css code can also be more organize during export. Thank you Or Arbel - my go to support person in terms of Launchpad. He is really helpful in providing all the information I need regarding the app. I am truly thankful. I won't have been able to learn so much in such a short time, if I was not able to gather the information I need. The support team provided me with tutorial that could be useful and little tips that I won't know even when going through YouTube and the forum. But I feel like Launchpad has a lot of potential. I will definitely recommend this to anyone who has a design background.
