source-sans | Sans serif font family for user interface environments | User Interface library

I was able to get the desired result for the toy example but I'm not 100 % sure if this holds true for larger sets when the image gets more crowded and it will most probably fail for the vertical bars in your example (maybe setting prefer_horizontal to a low value of say 0.1 may help in this case, rotating most of the words).

The following has to be paid attention to:

• set relative_scaling to 1 so that the font size is directly proportional to the frequency (per document).
• make the images wide enough so that the largest word will fit in its entire length into the image (otherwise is may get shrunk)
• set font_step to 0 to prevent font decreasing if the word doesn't fit at the first try (see source)

The following example illustrates this (colors and word positions are chosen randomly, so your result will be different, but the sizes and size ratios should be the same as in the example output) :

Try and replace the - with an _ (underscore) character, e.g. content: "arrow_down";

When you absolutely positioned your .opener element, it snapped to the edge of the screen, covering your nav:

You can adjust your background-size bigger than 100% to animate the background position.

Like background-size: 200% 100%;

it is version mismatch, just update all dependencies with npm-check-updates

I am a recent user of Webpack and not a good JS coder yet I managed to get my fonts compiled by Webpack.

Actually in your CSS when you point to your font in "media" folder you are refering to the compiled asset in "public/packs/media" folder.

Though what you want is not to use the data in the public folder, you really want to compile that font so it eventually ends up in this folder.

Then instead of pointing to "/media/fonts/source-sans-pro/SourceSansPro-Regular.otf" you want instead to refer to your font in the javascript folder : "../fonts/source-sans-pro/SourceSansPro-Regular.otf" then you will see the font compiled properly and appear in "public/packs/media" folder.

NB: OTF is not the best compiled font format ( https://creativemarket.com/blog/the-missing-guide-to-font-formats ). You better version your font into WOFF and WOFF2 through this website : https://transfonter.org/

I can strongly recommend not rolling your own templating: express comes with ejs built in, and if you need something more elaborate, adding better templating through pug or nunjucks are perfectly fine options. Rely on res.render() to generate your HTML files, don't use res.write or res.sendFile.

As for why things are not working properly, remember to read up on how static works: you tell Express which directories it needs to check for URL requests before moving on to the "real" routes, where -crucially- the name of the dir does not map to the URLs.

I.e. if you have this:
