It is true that web fonts are a 'browser' thing - however, you can
still download the underlying TTF files from the web font service and
include them in native standalones if you want to use

Hi Paul,
In the past, I aimed to align my application UI closely with the host
OS, believing that a consistent UI ensures broad accessibility. However,
