Hi!

I got an accelerator project installed and trying to setup the fonts for the project.  
When i run the build:w script I get all fonts generated from the "/client/fonts/ to the output folder /ui/fonts/…woff2 etc.  
But once I save anything that triggers the watch, all the fonts gets deleted in the UI folder.

Is there anything i can modify to make fonts stay in the ui/fonts folder?

Thanks 🙂

Added in webpack.config.common:

Litium version: 7.4.2

Have you added the font in your css? Check webpack’s document for more info [https://webpack.js.org/guides/asset-management/#loading-fonts](https://webpack.js.org/guides/asset-management/#loading-fonts)

Yeah, i’ve added @fontface and the src of the font.  
I get the font to appear after the build, but after the watch-job is done » the fonts gets removed.
