|
The [`next/font`](/docs/app/api-reference/components/font) module automatically optimizes your fonts and removes external network requests for improved privacy and performance. |
|
|
|
|
|
It includes **built-in self-hosting** for any font file. This means you can optimally load web fonts with no layout shift. |
|
|
|
|
|
To start using `next/font`, import it from [`next/font/local`]( |
|
|
|
|
|
```tsx filename="app/layout.tsx" highlight={1,3-5,9} switcher |
|
|
import { Geist } from 'next/font/google' |
|
|
|
|
|
const geist = Geist({ |
|
|
subsets: ['latin'], |
|
|
}) |
|
|
|
|
|
export default function Layout({ children }: { children: React.ReactNode }) { |
|
|
return ( |
|
|
<html lang="en" className={geist.className}> |
|
|
<body>{children}</body> |
|
|
</html> |
|
|
) |
|
|
} |
|
|
``` |
|
|
|
|
|
```jsx filename="app/layout.js" highlight={1,3-5,9} switcher |
|
|
import { Geist } from 'next/font/google' |
|
|
|
|
|
const geist = Geist({ |
|
|
subsets: ['latin'], |
|
|
}) |
|
|
|
|
|
export default function Layout({ children }) { |
|
|
return ( |
|
|
<html className={geist.className}> |
|
|
<body>{children}</body> |
|
|
</html> |
|
|
) |
|
|
} |
|
|
``` |
|
|
|
|
|
Fonts are scoped to the component they're used in. To apply a font to your entire application, add it to the [Root Layout](/docs/app/api-reference/file-conventions/layout#root-layout). |
|
|
|
|
|
## Google fonts |
|
|
|
|
|
You can automatically self-host any Google Font. Fonts are included stored as static assets and served from the same domain as your deployment, meaning no requests are sent to Google by the browser when the user visits your site. |
|
|
|
|
|
To start using a Google Font, import your chosen font from `next/font/google`: |
|
|
|
|
|
```tsx filename="app/layout.tsx" switcher |
|
|
import { Geist } from 'next/font/google' |
|
|
|
|
|
const geist = Geist({ |
|
|
subsets: ['latin'], |
|
|
}) |
|
|
|
|
|
export default function RootLayout({ |
|
|
children, |
|
|
}: { |
|
|
children: React.ReactNode |
|
|
}) { |
|
|
return ( |
|
|
<html lang="en" className={geist.className}> |
|
|
<body>{children}</body> |
|
|
</html> |
|
|
) |
|
|
} |
|
|
``` |
|
|
|
|
|
```jsx filename="app/layout.js" switcher |
|
|
import { Geist } from 'next/font/google' |
|
|
|
|
|
const geist = Geist({ |
|
|
subsets: ['latin'], |
|
|
}) |
|
|
|
|
|
export default function RootLayout({ children }) { |
|
|
return ( |
|
|
<html lang="en" className={geist.className}> |
|
|
<body>{children}</body> |
|
|
</html> |
|
|
) |
|
|
} |
|
|
``` |
|
|
|
|
|
We recommend using [variable fonts](https://fonts.google.com/variablefonts) for the best performance and flexibility. But if you can't use a variable font, you will need to specify a weight: |
|
|
|
|
|
```tsx filename="app/layout.tsx" highlight={4} switcher |
|
|
import { Roboto } from 'next/font/google' |
|
|
|
|
|
const roboto = Roboto({ |
|
|
weight: '400', |
|
|
subsets: ['latin'], |
|
|
}) |
|
|
|
|
|
export default function RootLayout({ |
|
|
children, |
|
|
}: { |
|
|
children: React.ReactNode |
|
|
}) { |
|
|
return ( |
|
|
<html lang="en" className={roboto.className}> |
|
|
<body>{children}</body> |
|
|
</html> |
|
|
) |
|
|
} |
|
|
``` |
|
|
|
|
|
```jsx filename="app/layout.js" highlight={4} switcher |
|
|
import { Roboto } from 'next/font/google' |
|
|
|
|
|
const roboto = Roboto({ |
|
|
weight: '400', |
|
|
subsets: ['latin'], |
|
|
}) |
|
|
|
|
|
export default function RootLayout({ children }) { |
|
|
return ( |
|
|
<html lang="en" className={roboto.className}> |
|
|
<body>{children}</body> |
|
|
</html> |
|
|
) |
|
|
} |
|
|
``` |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To use a local font, import your font from `next/font/local` and specify the [`src`](/docs/app/api-reference/components/font |
|
|
|
|
|
```tsx filename="app/layout.tsx" switcher |
|
|
import localFont from 'next/font/local' |
|
|
|
|
|
const myFont = localFont({ |
|
|
src: './my-font.woff2', |
|
|
}) |
|
|
|
|
|
export default function RootLayout({ |
|
|
children, |
|
|
}: { |
|
|
children: React.ReactNode |
|
|
}) { |
|
|
return ( |
|
|
<html lang="en" className={myFont.className}> |
|
|
<body>{children}</body> |
|
|
</html> |
|
|
) |
|
|
} |
|
|
``` |
|
|
|
|
|
```jsx filename="app/layout.js" switcher |
|
|
import localFont from 'next/font/local' |
|
|
|
|
|
const myFont = localFont({ |
|
|
src: './my-font.woff2', |
|
|
}) |
|
|
|
|
|
export default function RootLayout({ children }) { |
|
|
return ( |
|
|
<html lang="en" className={myFont.className}> |
|
|
<body>{children}</body> |
|
|
</html> |
|
|
) |
|
|
} |
|
|
``` |
|
|
|
|
|
If you want to use multiple files for a single font family, `src` can be an array: |
|
|
|
|
|
```js |
|
|
const roboto = localFont({ |
|
|
src: [ |
|
|
{ |
|
|
path: './Roboto-Regular.woff2', |
|
|
weight: '400', |
|
|
style: 'normal', |
|
|
}, |
|
|
{ |
|
|
path: './Roboto-Italic.woff2', |
|
|
weight: '400', |
|
|
style: 'italic', |
|
|
}, |
|
|
{ |
|
|
path: './Roboto-Bold.woff2', |
|
|
weight: '700', |
|
|
style: 'normal', |
|
|
}, |
|
|
{ |
|
|
path: './Roboto-BoldItalic.woff2', |
|
|
weight: '700', |
|
|
style: 'italic', |
|
|
}, |
|
|
], |
|
|
}) |
|
|
``` |
|
