Compartilhando um guia prático sobre fontes variáveis, com muitos exemplos.
Se você ainda não começou a usar fontes variáveis, o artigo Fontes variáveis na vida real de Roman Shamin e Travis Turner no Evil Martians mostra alguns casos de uso excelentes e explica por que seu próximo projeto deve fazer a mudança.
Agora, as fontes variáveis têm um excelente suporte a navegadores. Elas podem ajudar na performance, já que o navegador só precisa fazer o download de um único arquivo de fonte para todas as variações. No entanto, como este artigo mostra, elas também podem ajudar a combinar pesos de fonte com logotipos e outros elementos, auxiliar em problemas de contraste entre o modo claro e escuro e tornar o texto pequeno mais legível.
