I don't get how to type a correct path for local fonts. They are in the 'public/fonts'. It can resolve if fonts are in the same folder as layout.tsx, plus it can be resolved if path would be: '../public/fonts/myFont.woff2'. But I dont understand why I cant get them with default public path, like: '/fonts/myFont.woff2' or at least '@/public/fonts/myFont.woff2'

yea, it works if I set by default way, but i dont understand why it doesnt work like static asset public folder

because it is expecting the relative path of the font and will copy the font to static assets folder when building
