Typography
Utilities for controlling the style of text.
| Class | Styles |
| --- | --- |
| italic | font-style: italic; |
| not-italic | font-style: normal; |
Use the italic utility to make text italic:
The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.
<p class="italic ...">The quick brown fox ...</p>
Use the not-italic utility to display text normally:
The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.
<p class="not-italic ...">The quick brown fox ...</p>
Prefix a font-style utility with a breakpoint variant like md: to only apply the utility at medium screen sizes and above:
<p class="italic md:not-italic ..."> Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet...</p>
Learn more about using variants in the variants documentation .
