Afterward, the new font stacks will be available in the typography settings of your full site editing theme and, as a result, in the block editor for your content.

I’ve built numerous sites using Modern Font Stacks. Having a good selection of beautiful and efficient fonts for body text, script, monospaced text, etc. means that I can often avoid external fonts entirely, or just use a single external font for branding or headings.

This results in a super-fast user experience.
