Web fonts are pretty much all the rage. Using a CDN for font libraries, like TypeKit or Google Fonts, will be a great solution for many projects. For others, this is not an option. Especially when you are creating a custom icon library for your project.
Rails and the asset pipeline are great tools, but Rails has yet to get caught up in the custom web font craze.
As with all things Rails, there is more then one way to skin this cat. There is the recommended way, and then there are the other ways.
Here I will show how to update your Rails project so that you can use the asset pipeline appropriately and resource your files using the common Rails convention.
Many programming languages, including Ruby, have native boolean (true and false) data types. In Ruby they're called true
and false
. In Python, for example, they're written as True
and False
. But oftentimes we want to use a non-boolean value (integers, strings, arrays, etc.) in a boolean context (if statement, &&, ||, etc.).
This outlines how this works in Ruby, with some basic examples from Python and JavaScript, too. The idea is much more general than any of these specific languages, though. It's really a question of how the people designing a programming language wants booleans and conditionals to work.
