How do you go about using font files, such as `woff` or `woff2` and then reference them properly within the React app? Presumably, you’d want Webpack to bundle the font files into the build OR dist directory as hashed files?

The [Create React App User Guide](https://github.com/facebook/create-react-app/blob/master/packages/react-scripts/template/README.md#adding-images-fonts-and-files) has some info on this. I haven’t used it personally so I don’t really know but it sounds like they handle the Webpack bits for you.
