Answer 1

You need to create a react-native.config.js then you can use react-native link command.

Example:

module.exports = {
    project: {
        ios: {},
        android: {},
    },
    assets: ['./src/assets/fonts/Montserrat', './src/assets/fonts/Nunito', './src/assets/fonts/Newsreader', './src/assets/fonts/Anton', './src/assets/fonts/Gilroy'],
};
