As the question in title, I'm not sure if Recursive support SemiLight?
The Light is slightly thin and the Regular is a little bold for me.
Thanks for the nice font!
Hey @vuongggggg, thanks for your interest!
There is no premade or preset "SemiLight" instances for Recursive, _BUT_ the project includes a variable font, so there are various ways you can get & use a SemiLight style, and probably a solution that will work for your needs.
What context are you trying to use Recursive in? E.g. on the web, in a code editor, in MS Word, for packaging design, etc?
Hi @arrowtype, thanks for replying.
I use Recursive for coding, VSCode.

Nice! You’re in luck: the Recursive Code Config repo has YAML config + script + instructions you can follow to make a custom 4-style family to have exactly the weight you want for your "Regular" text. E.g. if you want normal text to be in a weight between the current Light & Regular, adjust Line 42 in config.yaml to be wght: 350
, then build the fonts. You can repeat this process to dial in exactly the weight you want!
If you want to preview the weight before building & checking, you could try one of a few things:

if you like coding with monospace fonts, as most people do. I think Code Sandbox will even pick up your local theming from VS Code settings, so this would probably be a really good simulation of it!I’ll close this issue for now, but feel free to add extra questions if you have them!
