Typography

The ds-kit typography module contains components to help style text and create pleasant reading experiences for users. The components provide solid styles out of the box, but also offer enough flexibility to fill most styling needs.

Read more about how to use typography and the type scales in the design guidelines for typography.

import { Heading, P, Span } from "@ds-kit/typography"

Basic Example

Out of the box, typography components default to useful dimensions. You can easily modify any of these components to fit your needs.

Heading h1
This is a sample paragraph.
Copy
<>
  <Heading>Heading h1</Heading>
  <P>This is a sample paragraph.</P>
</>

Headings

You can use any valid html heading tag with the as prop (h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6). Note that the tag you pass in there will have no impact on the actual size of the heading. The as prop serves only the purpose of enforcing a good semantic html structure on the page. To set the actual size of the heading, use the size prop.

Heading h1
Heading h2
Heading h3
Heading h4
Heading h5
Heading h6
Copy
<>
  <Heading as="h1">Heading h1</Heading>
  <Heading as="h2">Heading h2</Heading>
  <Heading as="h3">Heading h3</Heading>
  <Heading as="h4">Heading h4</Heading>
  <Heading as="h5">Heading h5</Heading>
  <Heading as="h6">Heading h6</Heading>
</>

Sizes

When setting the size of the heading, you can use the size prop. This prop takes any value between xxs and xxxl. It will not respond to rem or px sizes.

Heading XXS
Heading XS
Heading SM
Heading MD
Heading LG
Heading XL
Heading XXL
Heading XXXL
Copy
<>
  <Heading size="xxs">Heading XXS</Heading>
  <Heading size="xs">Heading XS</Heading>
  <Heading size="sm">Heading SM</Heading>
  <Heading size="md">Heading MD</Heading>
  <Heading size="lg">Heading LG</Heading>
  <Heading size="xl">Heading XL</Heading>
  <Heading size="xxl">Heading XXL</Heading>
  <Heading size="xxxl">Heading XXXL</Heading>
