    Hi team,

    Is there a full support for variable fonts in the roadmap? We are missing out on some amazing possibilities using the variable fonts. 

    Can we atleast have a tutorial on this if possible? 

    Variable fonts are better and faster too!

    Hi there,

    Thanks for writing to us.

    Please allow me to pass this on to the developer for further insights.

    I request your patience and understanding.

    Hey ipfy, the redux theme options framework which Salient utilizes does not currently support the use of 

    font-variation-settings

    when loading fonts. However, I've noted your +1 for the idea to create a custom solution for that from our end.

    For now, you would need to manually load the font family from Google and include the variable properties and then use custom CSS to set the variation properties. Here are the Google docs for how to link to a variable font: https://fonts.google.com/knowledge/using_type/loading_variable_fonts_on_the_web

    Kind regards

    Hi Team,

    Thanks for considering the idea. It would also be nice if you could update the latest google fonts as there are amazing new fonts added to the google fonts repository

    I've noted to get the most recent Googles fonts included for the next minor releasesmile.png

    Enjoy your weekend!
