I’m excited to see more complete support for Open Type Font Features landing in browsers.
Safari 16.2 added function values for font-variant-alternates: annotation(), character-variant(), ornaments(), styleset(), stylistic(), swash(), along with the associated @font-feature-values at-rules.
Chrome is currently working on overall support for font-variant-alternates.
Here’s a great demo of what this makes possible — the visual differences in fonts: https://roettsch.es/montecarlo.html
With and without.
