Changing Fonts in Next.js 14 Project

Fonts play a crucial role in the design and readability of your web application. In this guide, we’ll explore how to change fonts in a Next.js 14 project.

Step 1: Choose Your Font

First, select a font that suits your project. Google Fonts is a popular source, offering a wide range of free fonts.

Step 2: Import the Font

Once you've chosen a font, you can import it directly into your project. Here’s how you can do it:


  @import url('https://fonts.googleapis.com/css2?family=Roboto:wght@400;700&display=swap');
  

Add this import statement to your globals.css or another global stylesheet in your project.

Step 3: Apply the Font

Now that the font is imported, you can apply it across your project. Update your CSS file to use the new font:


  body {
    font-family: 'Roboto', sans-serif;
  }
  

This will apply the 'Roboto' font to all text in your application.

Step 4: Testing

Finally, ensure that the font has been applied correctly by running your development server and checking the results in your browser.

And that's it! You've successfully changed the font in your Next.js 14 project.
