About the Cabin font
Cabin is a sans-serif typeface designed by Impallari Type and Rodrigo Fuenzalida, first released to Google Fonts on March 2011. It ships with 4 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 low stroke contrast. Those three numbers are what the font finder uses to narrow an image down to the closest matches, so you can compare Cabin against the rest of the library by shape rather than by name.
