Göktuğ’s Customised Iosevka Fonts

Iosevka variants that

avoid confusion for symbols like 1, l, I, q, g, O, 0;
avoid useless ligatures like st because they are fucking dreadful.

Based on v27.3.5.

Variants

Iosevka Cadadrish Sans: non-serifed
Iosevka Cadadrish Sans Textured: non-serifed variant except with the experimental texture control feature enabled

Build & install

Get it prebuild from Github

I use Github Actions to auto-build Iosevka Cadadrish. See the releases page for binary releases.

The build script YAML thingy is based on @mjec’s setup. Many thanks!

Manual build and installation

BEWARE: Iosevka builds take about a million years on average!

Clone with depth 1 because the repository is HUGE:

$ git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/be5invis/Iosevka
$ cd Iosevka
$ git checkout v27.3.5
$ cp $OLDPWD/iosevka-cadadrish.toml private-build-plans.toml

Install a recent version of Node.js, probably using a binary release because they cut new major releases like a chef dices an onion.

With my own config, it should suffice to extract the binary release to ~/local/node-... and then run $ . ~/.profile. Otherwise, make sure to have the bin/ folder in the PATH environment variable.

There are other ways to acquire a recent enough Node.js, but for just this task, they are an overkill.

Then, build:

$ sudo apt install ttfautohint
$ npm install
$ npm run build -- contents::iosevka-cadadrish-sans
$ npm run build -- contents::iosevka-cadadrish-sans-texture
$ cp dist/**/*/*.ttf $HOME/.fonts

If build is consuming too much memory, try with the environment variable NODE_OPTIONS="--max-old-space-size=4096".

TODO

Perhaps add the Iosevka repo as a submodule?
