expo-google-fonts

The @expo-google-fonts packages for Expo allow you to easily use any of 1488 fonts (and their variants) from fonts.google.com in your Expo app.

These packages and all these fonts work across web, iOS, and Android and are free to use and open source.

Usage

Here is an example of using the Inter font family in a very simple project.

Install the package for the font you want

npx expo install @expo-google-fonts/inter expo-font

In your app

import React, { useState, useEffect } from 'react';
import { Text, View, StyleSheet } from 'react-native';
import {  useFonts, Inter_900Black } from '@expo-google-fonts/inter';

export default function App() {
  let [fontsLoaded] = useFonts({
    Inter_900Black,
  });

  if (!fontsLoaded) {
    return null;
  }

  return (
    <View style={{ flex: 1, justifyContent: 'center', alignItems: 'center' }}>
      <Text style={{ fontFamily: 'Inter_900Black', fontSize: 40 }}>Inter Black</Text>
    </View>
  );
}

Note: You can also install expo-splash-screen to load fonts before your app is rendered. This will help you to keep the splash screen visible while loading the fonts and then hide the splash screen when app has rendered with some initial content. See minimal example in Fonts for more information.

Example Project

Here is a minimal but complete example.

Each individual font family package README includes a complete example of using that font family.
