The only channel I know that actually provides website links so your life would be easier. Thank you so much for providing good content. I'm actually learning more and more.
Before watching the video: Thank you, thank you very much I have been waiting for this video for 1 month since you upload the Self-hosted fonts explained (including Google fonts)
Greetings Thank you for the great videos you make I tried the steps you mentioned in this video, but when i use font-family:'Roboto' ; nothing changes (it keeps using the default font of chrome which as i know is times new roman) and when i add (,sans-serif) the font changes to roboto
That's it. For now I just want at most 3 great reading fonts do read on Obsidian. That's all. Variable fonts, for that, is a no go. Again, thanks, a lot.
what would be the additional css needed to apply this on a per character basis? I'd like to use a short phrase but have the hover change the variable font on individual letter
I like to watch your videos. I found your channel only like 2-3 days ago, but the stuff you cover and the way you talk just really speaks to me. This video is very informative, as I didn't know such a thing existed. I'm just at the beginning of my journey, but still. I'm struggling to see any use for it. I would like to know how often is that actually being used as well 🙂 Anyway, keep up the good work. Peace 🙂
nice shirt, I saw the root color doesn't work on my 2011 MacBook Now I know it is something to do with the new computer n new rules in CSS -font squirrel make your font usable on your site..
Seriously, CSS variables are overpowered. No matter what limitation a certain property implies, you can just slap the values in some variables, and call those variables. And redefine only those you want. CSS variables seriously make the web dev so much easier.
Nice video, as usual. Question: where would variable fonts be useful besides some gains in performance? And what about accessibility ( for people with cognitive/neurological disabilities)?
They're great because you can get "in-between" things, like font-wieght 350, which might look best, or even do a weight of 300 for lightmode and 325 for darkmode, since light text on a dark background looks visually thinner, specially if it's thin to start with. For accessibility, mostly about making text as readable as possible, so things like the weights that I mentioned above. Not really aware of much else. I know there are fonts designed specifically to make them more readable for people with dyslexia,
"Atkinson Hyperlegible" is a font that is probably the best when it comes to readability. Now that I've seen what you can do with variable fonts - I imagine adding an end user control panel with just a slider or two to customize how thicc letters are on a webpage would make a lot of people with reading problems very happy.
@@sharkinahat Happy to see it's a google font. Looks very nice. Thanks Edit: except it doesn't seem to be a variable font. So it can't be used like that, right?
3:14 Ah, Jam ... one of the original TrueType GX fonts. I remember playing with them back in 1993, when Apple first came out with its groundbreaking “QuickDraw GX” graphics technology. Other such fonts were Skia and Hoefler.
Hi kevin all your videos are greatly helpfull for us. I have a request for you, please speak slower so that it could be easier for many people like me who are not native english speakers and dont have that much fluency in english
Hello, I am just begining to use VS code, and was wondering your opinion on the built in VS code extension to view HTML as it would appear in a browser vs just a normal browser window. Which do you recommend?
Thanks for your content! You are doing a great job!💖 But still, keep in mind that Kyiv* is the right way to pronounce the name of a Ukrainian city, and not kiEv - the russian version
@@robp.3920 You are right; some countries may come up with their own pronunciation (as you`ve mentioned in Poland they say "Kijow"), but since English uses transliteration of the city name, it would be fair to use the language of Origin - Ukrainian. (Moreover, in the current situation)
@@robp.3920 If it`s so hard for you to say /ˈkiːɪv/ instead of /ˈkiːɛf/, then I'd advise you to read aloud more to boost your tongue/jow mobility. Wish you the best!
Hey, KyivType mention was very surprising! Your content is top notch as always, but this just made me regret we don't have any "superlike" buttons here on RUclips 😅
Just a heads up for anyone unsure, it's pronounced Keev, not Kee-iv, the former is the Ukrainian pronunciation while the latter is the Russian pronunciation. I'm sure we can all see why this minor thing is fairly important.

You're always pumping out great content about stuff I didn't know about. Thanks!
My achilles heel is typography.
Any sufficiently advanced CSS is indistinguishable from magic. - A. C. Clarke (probably?)
I had no idea variable fonts are even a thing.
Very old idea, dating back to the 1990s. Adobe had “Multiple Masters”, and Apple had TrueType GX.

20 min? I don't need a deep dive I just want an intro!
"We're not going to be doing a deep dive, this is just an intro."
😲
20mins is no deep dive. take your time and enjoy the video, he spend a lot of work into this…
Kevin, you're awesome.
I probably would have to see the video more than once
But now I'm understanding
Great content! Huge thanks for mentioning Kiyiv fonts!
That's it.
For now I just want at most 3 great reading fonts do read on Obsidian. That's all.
Variable fonts, for that, is a no go.
Again, thanks, a lot.
I followed this tutorial and everything worked great, but once I deployed a live site, the font isn't loading. Any ideas?
Hi Kevin, Where do you downloaded your fonts that you usually use?
what would be the additional css needed to apply this on a per character basis? I'd like to use a short phrase but have the hover change the variable font on individual letter

Thank you for the great tips! Congratulations on your youtube channel! I used to be a student of yours at the Rosemont Technology Center.
Really cool!

How to add a Variable Font in Elementor???
i don‘t like the idea of having 500 different font styles just bedause its easy to implement that with variable fonts. designers will go crazy 😅
Seriously, CSS variables are overpowered. No matter what limitation a certain property implies, you can just slap the values in some variables, and call those variables. And redefine only those you want. CSS variables seriously make the web dev so much easier.
Oh wow. I made an icon font. By making that variable, I could make it animate! Do you have any info/tools on creating variable fonts?
Cool Video!,Kevin
thank you for amazing content, I watch your videos everyday, I am a beginner and this channel is one of the best!

What you do at timestamp 20:26 with your custom properties, couldn't you declare them all on the body and then only change selected ones in your h1?
hi Kevin could I purchase the beyond css course? I want to learn more abt css architecture
3:14 Ah, Jam ... one of the original TrueType GX fonts. I remember playing with them back in 1993, when Apple first came out with its groundbreaking “QuickDraw GX” graphics technology. Other such fonts were Skia and Hoefler.
By the way, for those who don’t know, Jam is emulating a very old, worn typewriter with a terrible ribbon. Hence all the gaps and blotches.
Excelent !
17:30 A job for CSS custom properties?
20:12 Ah.
just noticed you cool t-shirt...love it :)
Thank You so much Kevin 🙏🏽❤
I'm thinking you can improve the file size if you delete some characters which you know you won't use for your project.
100% subsetting can go a long way. Some tools out there will do it when the site is built, and only keep the ones you need 👍
Hi kevin all your videos are greatly helpfull for us. I have a request for you, please speak slower so that it could be easier for many people like me who are not native english speakers and dont have that much fluency in english
you can change the speed of the video to watch it more slowly, it helps :)
Hello that's a really cool trick again tank you !
Thank you, Kevin.

Love the t-shirt 🤩

the LiveServer extension
@@makebooks1128 Thanks!
this is great
Why haven't I heard about this before?
Attitudes to it are a bit mixed. Some people hate it.
Thanks for your content! You are doing a great job!💖
But still, keep in mind that Kyiv* is the right way to pronounce the name of a Ukrainian city, and not kiEv - the russian version
Sorry about that, definitely wasn't intentional 🙂
Isn't the pronunciation varying from country to country?
🇵🇱 ppl definitely don't pronounce it as Kyiv
@@robp.3920 You are right; some countries may come up with their own pronunciation (as you`ve mentioned in Poland they say "Kijow"), but since English uses transliteration of the city name, it would be fair to use the language of Origin - Ukrainian. (Moreover, in the current situation)
@@_g4rv You completely ignored the difficulty in pronunciation. It would be fair if you took it into consideration.
@@robp.3920 If it`s so hard for you to say /ˈkiːɪv/ instead of /ˈkiːɛf/, then I'd advise you to read aloud more to boost your tongue/jow mobility. Wish you the best!
CSS's syntax is getting increasingly ugly and verbose after decades off adding tons of shit with no prior planning.
Those four-byte codes come directly from the OpenType spec. You will see them in other apps that support OpenType features/variations.
Hello from Kyiv. Thanks for video!
