How can I change the font used in a quarto book?

Description

Hi,

In my book I'd like to use a special font to display the polars code correctly.

Ideally I'd like to store the font ttf file in my github repository (for example in a font subdirectory) and then make a link.

I've tried this but quarto doesn't seem to like it:

format:
  html:
    theme:
      light: cosmo
    code-fold: false
    css: custom.css
    mainfont: font/Cascadia.ttf # <- here's the problem

You need to import it in your (S)CSS file:

@font-face {
  font-family: "MyFont";
  src: url("path/to/font.ttf");
}

Then you can use mainfont: MyFont.
