paste the following YAML block after the flutter declaration. |
this pubspec.yaml file defines the italic style for the |
raleway font family as the Raleway-Italic.ttf font file. |
when you set style: TextStyle(fontStyle: FontStyle.italic), |
flutter swaps Raleway-Regular with Raleway-Italic. |
the family value sets the name of the typeface. |
you use this name in the fontFamily property of a TextStyle object. |
the value of an asset is a relative path from the pubspec.yaml file |
to the font file. |
these files contain the outlines for the glyphs in the font. |
when building the app, |
flutter includes these files in the app’s asset bundle. |
<topic_end> |
<topic_start> |
include font files for each font |
different typefaces implement font files in different ways. |
if you need a typeface with a variety of font weights and styles, |
choose and import font files that represent that variety. |
when you import a font file that doesn’t include either multiple fonts |
within it or variable font capabilities, |
don’t use the style or weight property to adjust how they display. |
if you do use those properties on a regular font file, |
flutter attempts to simulate the look. |
the visual result will look quite different from using the correct font file. |

set styles and weights with font files |
when you declare which font files represent styles or weights of a font, |
you can apply the style or weight properties. |
<topic_end> |
<topic_start> |
set font weight |
the weight property specifies the weight of the outlines in |
the file as an integer multiple of 100, between 100 and 900. |
these values correspond to the FontWeight and can be used in the |
fontWeight property of a TextStyle object. |
in the pubspec.yaml shown in this guide, |
you defined RobotoMono-Bold as the 700 weight of the font family. |
to use the RobotoMono-Bold font that you added to your app, |
set fontWeight to FontWeight.w700 in your TextStyle widget. |
if hadn’t added RobotoMono-Bold to your app, |
flutter attempts to make the font look bold. |
the text then might appear to be somewhat darker. |
you can’t use the weight property to override the weight of the font. |
you can’t set RobotoMono-Bold to any other weight than 700. |
if you set TextStyle(fontFamily: 'robotomono', fontWeight: FontWeight.w900), |
the displayed font would still render as however bold RobotoMono-Bold looks. |
<topic_end> |
<topic_start> |
set font style |
the style property specifies whether the glyphs in the font file display as |
either italic or normal. |
these values correspond to the FontStyle. |
you can use these styles in the fontStyle property |
of a TextStyle object. |
in the pubspec.yaml shown in this guide, |
you defined Raleway-Italic as being in the italic style. |
to use the Raleway-Italic font that you added to your app, |
set style: TextStyle(fontStyle: FontStyle.italic). |
flutter swaps Raleway-Regular with Raleway-Italic when rendering. |
if hadn’t added Raleway-Italic to your app, |
flutter attempts to make the font look italic. |
the text then might appear to be leaning to the right. |
you can’t use the style property to override the glyphs of a font. |
if you set TextStyle(fontFamily: 'raleway', fontStyle: FontStyle.normal), |
the displayed font would still render as italic. |
the regular style of an italic font is italic. |
<topic_end> |
<topic_start> |
set a font as the default |
to apply a font to text, you can set the font as the app’s default font |
in its theme. |
to set a default font, set the fontFamily property in the app’s theme. |
match the fontFamily value to the family name declared in the |
pubspec.yaml file. |
the result would resemble the following code. |
<code_start> |
return MaterialApp( |
title: 'custom fonts', |
// set raleway as the default app font. |
theme: ThemeData(fontFamily: 'raleway'), |
home: const MyHomePage(), |
); |
<code_end> |

<topic_end> |
<topic_start> |
set the font in a specific widget |
to apply the font to a specific widget like a text widget, |
provide a TextStyle to the widget. |
for this guide, |
try to apply the RobotoMono font to a single text widget. |
match the fontFamily value to the family name declared in the |
pubspec.yaml file. |
the result would resemble the following code. |
<code_start> |
child: text( |
'roboto mono sample', |
style: TextStyle(fontFamily: 'robotomono'), |
