I’m trying to load some fonts here and can’t get rid of that error:
import { useFonts } from "expo-font";
import { Stack, SplashScreen } from "expo-router";
import { useEffect } from "react";
SplashScreen.preventAutoHideAsync();
const RootLayout = () => {
const [fontsLoaded, error] = useFonts({
"Poppins-Black": require("../assets/fonts/Poppins-Black.ttf"),
"Poppins-Bold": require("../assets/fonts/Poppins-Bold.ttf"),
"Poppins-ExtraBold": require("../assets/fonts/Poppins-ExtraBold.ttf"),
"Poppins-ExtraLight": require("../assets/fonts/Poppins-ExtraLight.ttf"),
"Poppins-Light": require("../assets/fonts/Poppins-Light.ttf"),
"Poppins-Medium": require("../assets/fonts/Poppins-Medium.ttf"),
"Poppins-Regular": require("../assets/fonts/Poppins-Regular.ttf"),
"Poppins-SemiBold": require("../assets/fonts/Poppins-SemiBold.ttf"),
"Poppins-Thin": require("../assets/fonts/Poppins-Thin.ttf"),
});
useEffect(() => {
if (error) {
console.log("Font Loading Error:", error); // Log the specific error
throw error;
}
if (fontsLoaded) {
console.log("Fonts Loaded Successfully!");
SplashScreen.hideAsync();
}
}, [fontsLoaded, error]);
if (!fontsLoaded) {
return null;
}
if (!fontsLoaded && !error) {
return null;
}
return (
<Stack>
<Stack.Screen name="(tabs)" options={{ headerShown: false }} />
<Stack.Screen name="(auth)" options={{ headerShown: false }} />
<Stack.Screen name="index" options={{ headerShown: false }} />
<Stack.Screen name="search/[query]" options={{ headerShown: false }} />
</Stack>
);
};
export default RootLayout;
Here’s the package.json:
{
"name": "aora",
"version": "1.0.0",
"main": "expo-router/entry",
"scripts": {
"start": "expo start",
"android": "expo start --android",

},

}
Also, project structure and app.json:
root -> assets -> fonts
{
"expo": {
"name": "Aora",
"slug": "aora",
"scheme": "aora",
"version": "1.0.0",
"orientation": "portrait",
"icon": "./assets/icon.png",
"userInterfaceStyle": "light",
"splash": {
"image": "./assets/splash.png",
"resizeMode": "contain",
"backgroundColor": "#ffffff"
},
"assetBundlePatterns": [
"./assets/**/*.{ttf,png}"
],
"ios": {
"supportsTablet": true
},
"android": {
"adaptiveIcon": {
"foregroundImage": "./assets/adaptive-icon.png",
"backgroundColor": "#ffffff"
}
},
"web": {
"favicon": "./assets/favicon.png"
},
"plugins": [
"expo-router"
]
}
}
I’ve tried cleaning and rebuilding, uninstalling the @react-native/assets-registry package to see if it was a conflict with native Expo asset loading features, but it’s an essencial package to the project. Can anyone help me with this?

The paths in useFonts look off by one level. Can you try this instead
And I haven’t seen that kind of regex in assetBundlePatterns, maybe change it to this as well?
Let me know if that worked for you
I think you are following JavaScript Mastery course and now you have updated your project to a new SDK, right?
You can try Remove node modules and installing them once again.
