In the documentation page of textFont(), they say:

If textFont() is called without any argument, it will return the current font if one has been set already.

So you can try:

console.log(textFont());

// => sans-serif

You can also look in the source code where they set the default font for the canvas drawing context:

github.com

processing/p5.js/blob/main/src/core/p5.Renderer2D.js#L29


      
          }
          
          getFilterGraphicsLayer() {
            // create hidden webgl renderer if it doesn't exist
            if (!this.filterGraphicsLayer) {
              // the real _pInst is buried when this is a secondary p5.Graphics
              const pInst =
                this._pInst instanceof p5.Graphics ?
                  this._pInst._pInst :
                  this._pInst;
          
              // create secondary layer
              this.filterGraphicsLayer =
                new p5.Graphics(
                  this.width,
                  this.height,
                  constants.WEBGL,
                  pInst
                );
            }
