Snazzy documentation, with best practices

[kaizau]

Because we're designers and the current docs are offensive to the eyes plain. Fewer words, more demonstration. Examples that show the full range of what's possible.

Other things to include:

• Common installation problems Conflict with Bootstrap and FontAwesome #67
• Tips for getting proper alignment
• Downloadable Illustrator template
• How to get round circles from Illustrator Rendering issue with a solid fill circle #85
• How to create custom templates
• Link to useful blog posts, sister projects (http://pivotallabs.com/generate-icon-fonts-automatically-with-fontcustom/, http://fontcustoms.andersrex.com/, etc.)
• Pending features requests, limitations Feature Request: Ability to specify unicode position for each glyph #56 add ligature support #21 Feature request: hinting for specific sizes #4

@EZYZ @endtwist "How to create custom templates"

Is there a quick way or folder location to let me know how to do this?

[kaizau]

Under the templates section: https://github.com/FontCustom/fontcustom#configuration

Let me know if anything's not clear.

It appears to me that the template codes available are tailored to making css-like output. Eg. it doesn't appear to be possible to output a php file with a declaration of all available icons (e.g. for CMS-like functions where you may want to let the end user select an icon among the available ones). Though that is technically more of a feature request than lack of documentation. And implementing this myself by iterating the vectors input directory should be fairly simple.
