Fonts

There are a lot of different things we can do with fonts, including changing their family and size.

Family

Head over to Google Fonts and pick out a font that you like.

Select that font then view all your selected fonts:

Copy the code between the <style> tags.

Paste this code at the top of your css file.

/* Your fonts here */
@import url('https://fonts.googleapis.com/css2?family=Pacifico&display=swap');
/* */

Then head back to Google Fonts and copy the font-family line of code.

Let’s style our headings with your selected font:

/* Your CSS here */

h1 {
	font-family: 'Pacifico', cursive;
}

h2 {
	font-family: 'Pacifico', cursive;
}

h3 {
	font-family: 'Pacifico', cursive;
}
Challenge!

Find another font to use for the nav, footer and paragraphs.

Size

Let’s try changing the size of our text too.

Add the following to your CSS:

Before - Replace this code
/* Your CSS here */

h1 {
	font-family: 'Pacifico', cursive;

}
After - Updated code
/* Your CSS here */

h1 {
	font-family: 'Pacifico', cursive;
    font-size: 50px;
}
Challenge!

Change the font size of the h2, h3, and p tags.

Colour

We can change the color of our fonts using the color attribute.

Add the following to your CSS:

/* Your CSS here */

a {
	color: #ffffff;
}
Test

The colour of the a tags in the nav should turn white.

Challenge!

Change the colour of the h1, h2 and h3 headings.

Here’s what your page should look like so far (using your own fonts):
