Font Loading

Add custom fonts to improve the application's typography.

Add Google Fonts

Update server/document.js to preload fonts:

import React from "react";
import { Head, Body } from "catalyst-core";


function Document(props) {
  return (
    <html lang="en">
      <Head {...props}>
        <link rel="preconnect" href="https://fonts.googleapis.com" />
        <link rel="preconnect" href="https://fonts.gstatic.com" crossOrigin="" />
        <link
          href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css2?family=Poppins:wght@400;500;700&display=swap"
          rel="stylesheet"
        />
      </Head>
      <Body {...props} />
    </html>
  );
}


export default Document;

Apply the Font

Update your CSS to use the font:

body {
  font-family: "Poppins", Arial, sans-serif;
}

The Poppins font now applies to all text. Next, we'll add code splitting.
