Paragraphs are the essential building blocks of text. A comfortable line length and surrounding whitespace contribute to their legibility.

Syntax

A paragraph is a sequence of Unicode characters with arbitrary length. It’s finished by an empty line.

In addition to the normal paragraph, the theme offers a first paragraph — like the first one on this page. There is also a big and a small one. We can also assign a topic or some other general category to a following section by adding a meta paragraph above it.

These styles are applied with the attributes {.p-first}, {.p-big}, {.p-small} and {.p-meta}.

Layout

Line height and length are coordinated with the proportions of the font-family Plex. The space between subsequent paragraphs is twice as big as the space between two lines inside a paragraph. On small screens it’s a little less.

Two standard Paragraphs

Far far away, behind the word mountains, far from the countries Vokalia and Consonantia, there live the blind texts. Separated they live in Bookmarksgrove right at the coast of the Semantics, a large language ocean. A small river named Duden flows by their place and supplies it with the necessary regelialia.

It is a paradisematic country, in which roasted parts of sentences fly into your mouth. Even the all-powerful Pointing has no control about the blind texts it is an almost unorthographic life. One day however a small line of blind text by the name of Lorem Ipsum decided to leave for the far World of Grammar.

Topic
