HTML
Last modified:
Display type should use or be wrapped by semantic markup, eg. heading tags (h1..6
).
Design
Last modified:
These classes scale up in font-size
in relation to their class names; the bigger the number, the larger the font-size (from 1 to a cap of 10).
Accessibility
Last modified:
See HTML guidance.
Double-check type sizing when printing.
Rationale
Last modified:
Display type are historically purpose-built for large sizes, eg. store fronts or in newspaper title pages.
📝 Display type were intentionally scaled inversely to Headings. (This comes from its print-world association, but it’s confusing and probably deserves review.)
