     Component: FontApplicator
-    Loads fonts from fontshare with link tag
-    - Loads font only if it's not already applied
-    - Reacts to font load status to show/hide content
-    - Adds smooth transition when font appears
+    Applies a font to its children once the font file is loaded.
+    Shows the skeleton snippet while loading; falls back to system font if no skeleton is provided.
