Update the default fonts of your SaaS

Learn how to update the fonts of your Makerkit application

By default, Makerkit uses two fonts:

  1. font-sans: using Apple's default font on Apple devices, or Inter on others
  2. font-heading: uses Urbanist from Google Fonts

The fonts are defined at apps/web/lib/fonts.ts:

import { Urbanist as HeadingFont, Inter as SansFont } from 'next/font/google';
/**
 * @sans
 * @description Define here the sans font.
 * By default, it uses the Inter font from Google Fonts.
 */
const sans = SansFont({
  subsets: ['latin'],
  variable: '--font-sans',
  fallback: ['system-ui', 'Helvetica Neue', 'Helvetica', 'Arial'],
  preload: true,
  weight: ['300', '400', '500', '600', '700'],
});
/**
 * @heading
 * @description Define here the heading font.
 * By default, it uses the Urbanist font from Google Fonts.
 */
const heading = HeadingFont({
  subsets: ['latin'],
  variable: '--font-heading',
  fallback: ['system-ui', 'Helvetica Neue', 'Helvetica', 'Arial'],
  preload: true,
  weight: ['500', '700'],
});
// we export these fonts into the root layout
export { sans, heading };

To display a different font, please replace the imports from next/font/google if the font is there.

Removing Apple's system as default font on Apple Devices

To set another font instead of Apple's system font, update the Tailwind variables.

Open apps/web/styles/shadcn-ui.css.css and replace -apple-system with the font you want to use.
