Typography

Note

Quark 2 is Grav 2.0's default theme. It uses Pico CSS as a classless foundation, layered with a Cal.com-inspired design system. Full Pico capabilities are documented in the Official Pico CSS Docs.

The Quark 2 theme is Grav's new default, replacing the long-serving Quark (1.x) theme. It pairs a pure-grayscale palette with Cal Sans for display and Inter for body text (both hosted locally), Font Awesome 7 icons, and auto/light/dark appearance that persists in the user's browser. The layout system is CSS Grid + modern custom properties rather than a framework grid.

Headings

Quark 2 uses Cal Sans for display headings and treats h1 / h2 distinctly — h1 sits at a lighter display weight while h2 is bolder and gains a small accent bar to mark section breaks. h6 is rendered as an uppercase eyebrow label.

H1 Heading — airy, display weight

H2 Heading — confident, with accent bar

H3 Heading — workhorse section heading

H4 Heading

H5 Heading
H6 Heading — uppercase eyebrow
# H1 Heading
## H2 Heading
### H3 Heading
#### H4 Heading
##### H5 Heading
###### H6 Heading

Paragraphs

Body copy is set in Inter at 16px with a 1.7 line-height and subtle tracking. Links adopt the theme's accent color — by default a restrained charcoal, but configurable to any hex via Themes → Quark 2 → Accent Color.
