Using Caveat on a website
Sizes
Script faces need size to stay legible: use Caveat at 40px and up, for a name, a headline or a single phrase, never for body text, buttons or menus.
Spacing
Leave letter spacing at the default, since script letters are drawn to join, and give the line plenty of room above and below.
Loading
This page loads 400 and 700. Load only the weights you actually use: every extra weight is another file before text can render in it. Self-hosting with next/font, or font-display: swap with the Google Fonts CSS, keeps text visible while it loads.
Caveat is free on Google Fonts, where you can see every weight and style it comes in.
