The founder of this typeface is Apple Inc and it was initially released on November 18, 2014. Which… unless I’m daft… means that San Francisco is a variable font. Here is the San Francisco Font that is a neo-grotesque sans-serif typeface font. See, I was derping around with Roboto Flex, and had system-ui as the fallback font, and I was noticing that during the FOUT, the font-variation-settings I was using had an effect on the fallback font, which renders as San Francisco on my Mac. Perhaps not something Apple wants to deal with supporting, documenting, versioning, etc.īut just yesterday I randomly stumbled across the fact that the built-in San Francisco font (on the Apple devices that have it built-in) is already variable (!!). I think variable fonts are super cool but I get the impression that industry-wide they are considered niche still. So I ended with:ĭoesn’t this make perfect sense to construct as a variable font and ship the whole kit and kaboodle that way? San Francisco really looks nice in both the compressed and expanded 1 versions, across all the weights. I was recently fawning over Apple’s recently Expanded San Francisco Typeface.
