What is fundamental of typography?


    Typography is the art of arranging letters and text in a way that makes the copy legible, clear, and visually appealing to the reader. It is a core aspect of every design system, but also one of the most fragile and overlooked—here's how we make sure our typographic systems can stand up to change at scale.
       Defining typography in a design system can be difficult because of the biases we bring
 along. In word processors, design programs, and even CSS, we’re used to defining typography including everything from weight to line-height to color to spacing.
Here are some type of trending 

Type face:

A typeface (or font family) is a design of letters, numbers and other symbols, to be used in printing or for electronic displayThere are three main categories of typefaces: serif, sans serif, and script
Typeface refers to a group of characters, letters and numbers that share the same design.
What is typeface example?
For example  Garamond, Times, and Arial  are typefaces. Whereas font is a specific style of typeface with a set width, size, and weight.
Size:


The point is the smallest unit of measure in Typography. It is used for measuring font size, leading, and other items on a printed page. The size of the point has varied throughout printing's history.
The actual physical size of a point has varied throughout history, but since the mid-1980s, one point is equivalent to 1/72nd of an inch in print.

Weight:
    Weight refers to the relative thickness of a font's stroke. A typeface can come in many weights; and four to six weights is a typical... Weight refers to the relative thickness of a font's stroke. A typeface can come in many weights; and four to six weights is a typical number available for a typeface.

The standard font weight is 400.
Common weight name and mapping:

    400                                                                     Normal
    500                                                                     Medium
    600                                                                     Semi Bold
    700                                                                     Bold
Color:

    In typography, color refers to the overall presence of type on a page its lightness and darkness compared to the negative space rather than literal color in the sense of a palette or swatch.
    
    
    Clean and minimalist, white backgrounds with black text offer optimal readability and a modern aesthetic. A softer alternative to black, dark gray provides subtlety while maintaining readability. Light gray text can create a gentle and harmonious look when paired with darker backgrounds.

Visual Hierarchy:



Three major sections make up a visual hierarchy of text. These are the headline, subheading, and body which make the design more visually appealing and easier to navigate. This allows readers to scan quickly for relevant information.
