Base44 Lets You Upload Custom Fonts for Your Workspace Design System
Base44Base44 workspace design systems can now use a custom uploaded font, alongside the built-in font options, applied consistently across the theme popover, the brand typography editor, and the visual-edit font picker. The change lets teams with an existing brand identity keep their exact typeface everywhere a Base44 app renders text.
Key Takeaways
- Base44 workspaces can now upload a custom font instead of being limited to the built-in font list.
- The uploaded font is available in three places: the theme popover, the brand typography editor, and the visual-edit font picker.
- Custom fonts behave as first-class options, selectable the same way as Base44's built-in fonts.
- The update primarily benefits brand-conscious teams and agencies that need exact typeface consistency across client apps.
- It extends Base44's existing workspace design system, which already centralizes color and font control.
- The feature landed the same week as Base44's faster brand generation from a website URL update, both aimed at strengthening design tooling.
Bringing Your Own Typeface into Base44
Base44's workspace-level design system previously limited typography to a curated set of built-in fonts. Teams with an established brand and a specific typeface had no way to carry that identity into their Base44 apps. Base44 closed that gap by letting workspaces upload their own font and use it as a first-class option throughout the design system.
Where It Shows Up
An uploaded font now appears everywhere font choices are made in Base44: the theme popover used for quick styling tweaks, the brand typography editor used when defining a full design system, and the visual-edit font picker used when styling individual elements directly on the canvas. Once uploaded, the custom font behaves exactly like Base44's built-in options, selectable from the same pickers rather than requiring a separate workaround.
Why It Matters
Typography is one of the most visible parts of a brand, and being locked into a fixed font list was a real constraint for design-conscious teams and agencies building client apps on Base44. This update removes that constraint, letting a workspace's app output match brand guidelines exactly rather than approximating them with the closest built-in font.
