This guide will show you how to add web fonts to your project and use them in your components.
Using a local font file
Section titled Using a local font fileThis example will demonstrate adding a custom font using the font file DistantGalaxy.woff
.
-
Add your font file to
public/fonts/
. -
Add the following
@font-face
statement to your CSS. This could be in a global.css
file you import, a<style is:global>
block, or a<style>
block in a specific layout or component where you want to use this font. -
Use the
font-family
value from the@font-face
statement to style elements in your component or layout. In this example, the<h1>
heading will have the custom font applied, while the paragraph<p>
will not.
Using Fontsource
Section titled Using FontsourceThe Fontsource project simplifies using Google Fonts and other open-source fonts. It provides npm modules you can install for the fonts you want to use.
-
Find the font you want to use in Fontsource’s catalog. This example will use Twinkle Star.
-
Install the package for your chosen font.
You’ll find the correct package name in the “Quick Installation” section of each font page on Fontsource’s website. It will start with
@fontsource/
followed by the name of the font. -
Import the font package in the component where you want to use the font. Usually, you will want to do this in a common layout component to make sure the font is available across your site.
The import will automatically add the necessary
@font-face
rules needed to set up the font. -
Use the font’s name as shown in the
body
example on its Fontsource page as thefont-family
value. This will work anywhere you can write CSS in your Astro project.
Register fonts in Tailwind
Section titled Register fonts in TailwindIf you are using the Tailwind integration, you can use either of the previous methods on this page to install your font, with some modification. You can either add an @font-face
statement for a local font or use Fontsource’s import
strategy to install your font.
To register your font in Tailwind:
-
Follow either of the guides above, but skip the final step of adding
font-family
to your CSS. -
Add the typeface name to
tailwind.config.mjs
.This example adds
Inter
to the sans-serif font stack, with default fallback fonts from Tailwind CSS.Now, all sans-serif text (the default with Tailwind) in your project will use your chosen font and the
font-sans
class will also apply the Inter font.
See Tailwind’s docs on adding custom font families for more information.
