For experimentation, this page is provided using Public Sans Variable Font for most of the body text. We are fans of Public Sans as an open–source high–quality sans–serif font; although we don’t like the grotesque italic it provides.

Open Sans Italic replaces Public Sans Italic, PT Sans is used for headings, Source code Pro for source code elements, and Cormorant Garamond for callouts.

All these fonts are lazy–loaded using the CSS FontFace API. If they are not available, fallback system fonts are used in their place.
