UPDATE

Many answers are here for adding custom font in react-native for version < 0.60.

For those who are using react-native version > 0.60 , 'rnpm' is deprecated and custom fonts will not work.

Now, in order to add custom font in react-native version > 0.60 you will have to :

1- Create a file named react-native.config.js in the root folder of your project.

2- add this in that new file

module.exports = {
project: {
    ios: {},
    android: {},
},
assets: ['./assets/fonts']
};

3- run react-native link command in the root project path.

PS Make sure you have the right path for the fonts folder before running react-native link command
