Font-feature-settings property for OpenType fonts

OpenType fonts have feature settings you can use to tweak the font to your liking, using font-feature-settings property.

One specific use-case for this feature is when you wish to use a cool looking font for a countdown timer, but it doesn’t happen to be a mono-spaced font.

This means the width of numbers will change and keep pushing content around. Solution:

  font-feature-settings: “tnum”;
  font-variant-numeric: tabular-nums;
