Updating the Fonts

By default, Makerkit defines the site's fonts using the package next/font/google.

The fonts are defined at src/_app.tsx and you can update them to your liking.

What fonts are used by default?

By default, Makerkit uses the system Apple font on Apple devices, the Inter font as fallback.

Removing Apple font as default

If you want to remove the Apple font as default, simply update the FontsFamily component at src/_app.tsx to remove the Apple font.

function FontFamily() {
  return (
    <style jsx global>
      {`
        html {
          --font-family-sans: ${fontFamilySans.style.fontFamily}, 'Segoe UI', 'Roboto', 'Ubuntu',
            'sans-serif';
 
          --font-family-heading: ${fontFamilyHeading.style.fontFamily};
        }
      `}
    </style>
  );
}

If you compare the above with the version of the file you have in your project, you'll notice that we removed the --apple-system fonts.

Using a different font

If you want to use a different font, you can import it from the next/font/google package.

For example, below, we import the font Manrope from Google Fonts. It replaces Inter as the default font.

import { Manrope as SansFont } from 'next/font/google';

You can use two different fonts for the --font-family-sans and --font-family-heading variables. One is used an the main body font, the other as the heading font.
