How to use the sizes (CSS)
/* I have a default size */.dnb-p {font-size: var(--font-size-basis); /* 1.125 = 18px */}
Fallback font-size
If no specific font-size is defined, we use still 1rem as the basis. This is due to the fact that we use the basis font-size for many other layout related purposes.
