Describe the bug

I installed shadcn in a Next.js application using the following steps:

npx create-next-app@latest
npx shadcn@latest init

Options selected:

Radix
Nova

After setup, when I run the application, the font defaults to a serif font (Times New Roman) instead of the expected UI font (Giest font).

Expected behavior:
The app should use the configured default font (as per shadcn / theme setup).

Actual behavior:
The app renders with a default serif font (Times New Roman).
