How can we preload fonts in Angular?

Question

Should we include the fonts in index.html file with rel="preload" like the below code or can we configure this in Angular CLI to preload all the fonts required?
Please suggest me a better solution as I can see it takes multi-second page load time suggested in Google Analysis.

<link rel="preload" href="./assets/fonts/Lato/Lato-Semibold.woff2" as="font" crossorigin>
<link rel="preload" href="./assets/fonts/Lato/Lato-Black.woff2" as="font" crossorigin>
<link rel="preload" href="./assets/fonts/Lato/Lato-Bold.woff2" as="font" crossorigin>
<link rel="preload" href="./assets/fonts/Lato/Lato-Heavy.woff2" as="font" crossorigin>
<link rel="preload" href="./assets/fonts/Lato/Lato-Medium.woff2" as="font" crossorigin>
<link rel="preload" href="./assets/fonts/Lato/Lato-Regular.woff2" as="font" crossorigin>

Answer 1

1. Preconnect to the font file origin.
2. Preload the font stylesheet asynchronously with low priority.
3. Asynchronously load the font stylesheet and font file after the content has been rendered with JavaScript.
4. Provide a fallback font for users with JavaScript turned off.

Example::

<link rel="preconnect" href="https://fonts.gstatic.com" crossorigin />
<link rel="preload" as="style" href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css2family=Merriweather&display=swap" />
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css2family=Merriweather&display=swap" media="print" onload="this.media='all'" />
<noscript>
  <link rel="stylesheet" href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css2family=Merriweather&display=swap" />
</noscript>
