The font-variation-settings CSS descriptor allows authors to specify low-level OpenType or TrueType font variations in the @font-face rule.

Values

Text is laid out using default settings.

<string> <number>

When rendering text, the list of OpenType axis names is passed to the text layout engine to enable or disable font features. Each setting is always a <string> of 4 ASCII characters, followed by a <number> indicating the axis value. If the <string> has more or fewer characters or contains characters outside the U+20 - U+7E codepoint range, the whole property is invalid. The <number> can be fractional or negative.

therock Somewhere along this crazy road I learned (often times the hard way) the most important things I can do is be authentic, trust my gut, be the hardest worker in the room, celebrate the mistakes, be a grateful man and always remember that it's nice to be important, but it's more important to be nice.

Random CSS Property

:host()

The :host() CSS pseudo-class function selects the shadow host of the shadow DOM containing the CSS it is used inside (so you can select a custom element from inside its shadow DOM) — but only if the selector given as the function's parameter matches the shadow host.
