New default theme Twenty Twenty-Four
The main goal of the new default theme Twenty Twenty-Four is to provide a design that is suitable for many types of different websites – no matter what the site is about.

Unlike previous years, where the focus was on a specific theme, this time the developers worked on three different use cases: one for business people and small businesses, one for photography and artists, and one specifically for magazines and blogging.

Twenty Twenty-Four's design has been influenced by modern design trends. The theme uses a special font for headings and a simple font for regular text. The main colors of the theme are light, but there is also a darker option if that is preferred. There are also two other fonts to choose from: also a light and a dark variant.

Twenty Twenty-Four is, like its predecessors, a WordPress block theme and fits perfectly with the various tools that can be used to design websites. It also brings some new design options, such as the "Details Block" and the ability business owner database to arrange text vertically. A major goal of this theme is to offer complete page templates and patterns.

This means that instead of having to create an entire site from scratch, you can use pre-built parts to design your own website. This makes your process easier and more intuitive in many cases.

New features in WordPress 6.4
In addition to Twenty Twenty-Four, WordPress 6.4 also comes with some new features. We'll look at these below.

font library
The new font library is designed to fundamentally simplify the process of applying and using fonts on a website. It also provides integration points for plugins. Regardless of the currently active theme, the font library will be accessible to all users.

This ensures that all website owners can choose exactly the fonts they need for their website. The font library is intended to work in a similar way to the media library, which is already an integral part of WordPress.
