Font Family

Utilities for controlling the font family of an element.

sans
serif
mono
CSS
Customizing
export default {
  theme: {
    extend: {
      fontFamily: {
        sans: ['ui-sans-serif', 'system-ui'],
        serif: ['ui-serif', 'Georgia'],
        mono: ['ui-monospace', 'SFMono-Regular'],
        display: ['Oswald'],
        body: ['Open Sans'],
      },
    },
  },
}

Font families can be specified as an array or as a simple comma-delimited string:

{
  // Array format:
  "sans": ["Helvetica", "Arial", "sans-serif"],
  // Comma-delimited format:
  "sans": "Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif",
}

Note that Windi CSS does not automatically escape font names for you. If you're using a font that contains an invalid identifier, wrap it in quotes or escape the invalid characters.

{
  // Won't work:
  "sans": ["Exo 2", /* ... */],
  // Add quotes:
  "sans": ["\"Exo 2\"", /* ... */],
}

export default {
  theme: {
    fontSize: {
      'xs': '.75rem',
      'sm': '.875rem',
      'tiny': '.875rem',
      'base': '1rem',
      'lg': '1.125rem',
      'xl': '1.25rem',
      '2xl': '1.5rem',
      '3xl': '1.875rem',
      '4xl': '2.25rem',
      '5xl': '3rem',
      '6xl': '4rem',
      '7xl': '5rem',
    },
  },
}

You can provide a default line-height for each of your font-sizes using a tuple of the form [fontSize, lineHeight] in your windi.config.js file.

windi.config.js
export default {
  theme: {
    fontSize: {
      sm: ['14px', '20px'],
      base: ['16px', '24px'],
      lg: ['20px', '28px'],
      xl: ['24px', '32px'],
    },
  },
}

If you also want to provide a default letter-spacing value for a font size, you can do so using a tuple of the form [fontSize, { letterSpacing, lineHeight }] in your windi.config.js file.

windi.config.js
export default {
  theme: {
    fontSize: {
      '2xl': ['24px', {
        letterSpacing: '-0.01em',
      }],
      // Or with a default line-height as well
      '3xl': ['32px', {
        letterSpacing: '-0.02em',
        lineHeight: '40px',
      }],
    },
  },
