Type

Which face, size and weight to set: three families and one scale.

Three families: --font-display Archivo Expanded for headlines (700, sentence case, −0.01em); --font-sans Red Hat Text for body, UI, labels, buttons and keys; --font-mono DM Mono for IDs, numbers, commands and data values.

  • Use the display face for headlines (title-l and up) and for product names beside their marks. Never set body, data or labels in it.
  • Set labels, buttons, keys and table headers in label or label-s, in sentence case. The middle of the type scale (12–14 px sans) is where a console's words live; the display face and the small mono are its ends.
  • Set every number with tabular figures (font-variant-numeric: tabular-nums; built into af-num, af-mono, af-meta__val and af-readout).
  • Never set body copy in mono, and never set an ID, a number or a command in sans. Emphasize with fg against fg-muted, not italics; a status as the subject of a headline may take its color (<em> in a page title: "Two need you").
  • Each style compiles to a class of the same name in tokens.css (.display-l, .body-s, .label).
