Typography

Material's type system: five roles × three sizes, with emphasized pairs derived from baseline. Grab the right token in Use the system, or reshape the scale in Customize.

et— Etesie extension Material defines the roles and the token names, and specifies fixed values for each style. The modular scale that fills them here — base × ratiostep with a text ratio and a display ratio — is Etesie's: it is how one base size and two ratios produce a whole set, which Material does not define.
