About the Alegreya font
Alegreya is a serif typeface designed by Juan Pablo del Peral and HT Fonts, first released to Google Fonts on December 2011. It ships with 6 weights · italic · variable and is licenced under the SIL Open Font License, which permits commercial use in websites, apps, documents and print without attribution or payment.
Its measured character is a medium x-height at 70% of the cap height, normal letter forms and medium stroke contrast. Those three numbers are what the font finder uses to narrow an image down to the closest matches, so you can compare Alegreya against the rest of the library by shape rather than by name.
