What problem does this solve?

If you are planning to use Gatsby for your existing project, but have custom font files, you can use this repository to learn how to perform such migration.
This problem is broken into 2 parts In this project we have made use of Playfair Display font from Google Fonts as custom font.

Part 1

In the first part, we only show how to use the custom font files with Gatsby. You can do that by checking out the specific branch

git checkout -b embed_custom_font origin/embed_custom_font

Part 2

This part builds on Part1, and demonstrates how you can use Material-UI with the custom font when using Gatsby. You can look at the specific branch by checking out the code.

git checkout -b custom_font_material_ui origin/custom_font_material_ui
