I can seem to find any resources on how to use fonts in Elm.
Is it possible to import font files I downloaded from Google fonts to local folder to use in my project?

[@font-face - CSS: Cascading Style Sheets | MDN](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/@font-face) is a good resource for how to use custom fonts.

Hey thanks!
I forgot to mention something quite important though! I was using elm-ui at opposed to CSS. I wanna see if I can do everything without CSS if possible.
