## What it is
Typography.js is a JavaScript toolkit that generates harmonious typographic CSS from a simple configuration object, with a theme/plugin ecosystem. It provides a high-level API for expressing typographic design intent for websites.

## Use cases
- generate consistent typography css for a website from a config object
- create and share reusable typography themes via npm
- style blog or static site typography without hand-writing css
- explore typography designs in a playground
- inject typographic styles into a react or client-side web app

## When to choose
- you want beautiful, consistent typographic styles with minimal css effort
- you want to reuse or publish typography themes as npm packages
- you're building a blog, docs, or content site and want opinionated type scales

## When to avoid
- you need full custom control over every css declaration
- your project doesn't involve text-heavy typographic design
- you prefer modern css tooling like tailwind or design tokens

- function: css-framework, theme, ui-components
