Primary and secondary font with Chakra UI

Time:12-20

I am using Chakra Ui with React and I am trying to use two different fonts for two components, I already imported them using the Global method described in the docs but how can I use only the secondary one in my current component?

CodePudding user response:

When you mean secondary one, I am assuming that this is your secondary font? If so, there are two things you should be aware of. It is the textStyles key and extendTheme function from Chakra UI:

  1. Import the extendTheme function imported from Chakra UI.

    import { extendTheme } from "@chakra-ui/react"
    
  2. Using the extendTheme function will allow you to add new styles. This is where you will place the textStyles key:

    const themeExample = extendTheme({
        // Whatever you pass here will be ADDED to the theme.
        textStyles: { 
            primary: {
                fontFamily: "Font Primary"
            },
            secondary: {
                fontFamily: "Font Secondary"
            },
        },
    });
    
  3. Now the desired fonts are set up, they are easily accessible:

    <Box textStyle='primary'>Component One</Box>
    <Box textStyle='secondary'>Component Two</Box>
