In addition to using a limited amount of our standard brand font, this component uses the open-source monospace font "Source Code Pro". For this component to display correctly, loading the following weights / styles of "Source Code Pro" is necessary:
400 / normal400 / italic600 / normal
You can find instructions for using Google's CDN for font delivery, and download "Source Code Pro" on Google Fonts.
We recommend using Google's CDN for loading this font to optimize for caching the assets, speeding up loading times for webpages as a result. We use the following HTML in our <head> tags to load the necessary variants of "Source Code Pro":
<link rel="preconnect" href="https://fonts.gstatic.com" />
<link href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css2?family=Source+Code+Pro:ital,wght@0,400;0,600;1,400&display=swap" rel="stylesheet" />Example
