Paragraph

Block-level text content.

Typography is the art and technique of arranging type to make written language legible, readable, and appealing when displayed. The arrangement of type involves selecting typefaces, point sizes, line lengths, line-spacing, and letter-spacing.

Good typography creates a visual hierarchy, helps users navigate content, and improves the overall user experience. It's an essential element of web design that directly impacts readability and engagement.
