Description

I've just started the tutorial, but notice the font rendering makes it tricky to read. Looking in dev tools, I see most copy is treated with `font-light`. I don't think lightweight styling is appropriate for primary content, and removing makes it much easier to read. It's somewhat compounded by primary copy also being set to `text-sm`.

**Normal weight (text-sm)**

**Normal size & weight (my preference)**

Those screenshots are using Deja Vu Sans, as my system didn't have Inter font installed. I installed Inter, and it's not _as bad_ now but still subpar. In the tailwind config `font-family` is set to `"Inter var",sans-serif` but there's no loading of Inter, not sure if that's intentional?

Happy to attempt a PR if you'd like! 🌭

Research direction

Start by checking the Tailwind configuration and the styles applied to primary tutorial copy, focusing on the reported font-light and text-sm classes and the configured Inter font family. Compare the resulting typography in Linux/Firefox with the screenshots and verify that the primary content is easier to read at the intended weight and size, with font loading behaving as intended.
