This file contains a list of 160 variable fonts from Google Fonts that support both regular and italic variants. Variable fonts are a modern font technology that allows for smooth interpolation between different design parameters (like weight, width, or optical size) within a single font file, providing more flexibility and better performance compared to traditional static fonts.
Each font listed here has the "axes" property indicating it's a variable font, and includes both "regular" and "italic" in its variants array. This means these fonts can dynamically adjust their weight, width, or other design parameters while maintaining both upright and slanted (italic) styles.
The fonts span various categories including sans-serif, serif, monospace, and display typefaces, and are suitable for web use with full variable font capabilities. This list is useful for developers and designers who want to leverage variable font technology while ensuring they have access to both regular and italic text styles.

script:

jq -r '.items[] | select(has("axes") and (.variants | contains(["regular"]) and contains(["italic"]))) | .family' webfonts-vf.json > vf_fonts_regular_italic.txt
