Typography

Headings, text, eyebrow, blockquote, and inline-code foundations.

No package dependency beyond React. Shared Gummy material is resolved automatically.

Behavior contract

Semantics before surface

Semantics

Native text elements preserve the requested document hierarchy.

Keyboard

No component-specific keys.

System support

Light and dark themes, logical RTL layout, reduced motion, responsive content, and forwarded public refs.

Source-derived reference

Anatomy and public API

Exported anatomy

These public React parts are read directly from the canonical source during the documentation build.

Troubleshooting

Check behavior before surface.

Live product source

Inspect the canonical states

The Component Lab exercises real source across default, focus, disabled, responsive, dark, reduced-motion, and RTL contexts.

Open the live Component Lab

Interactive inspection

Try Typography in context

Resize the canvas, switch its theme, or reverse its reading direction without changing the rest of the page.

Direction

Release quality

Interfaces can feel deliberate.

Use GummyText for readable product copy.

Behavior stays familiar while the material earns attention.
