League Mono
============= by Tyler Finck
Monospace/variable font fun.
League Mono is a mashup of sorts, inspired by some beautiful forms found in both Fira Mono, Libertinus Mono, and Courier(?!).
May 2018 update: League Mono has been made a variable font:
Use the one TTF file called LeagueMonoVariable.ttf
for 40 predefined styles of League Mono. Then tweak the weight or width (from condensed – 50 – to extended – 200 - with various weights – 30 through 200).
Play with it at tylerfinck.com/lm-variable
Or you can use the OTF / TTF styles (above) for individual weights/widths if you don’t want to deal with the Variable version just yet. I made a cheat sheet:
Your options:
- Thin Condensed
- UltraLight Condensed
- Light Condensed
- Regular Condensed
- Medium Condensed
- SemiBold Condensed
- Bold Condensed
- ExtraBold Condensed
- Thin Narrow
- UltraLight Narrow
- Light Narrow
- Regular Narrow
- Medium Narrow
- SemiBold Narrow
- Bold Narrow
- ExtraBold Narrow
- Thin Normal
- UltraLight Normal
- Light Normal
- Regular Normal
- Medium Normal
- SemiBold Normal

- ExtraBold Normal
- Thin Wide
- UltraLight Wide
- Light Wide

- Bold Wide
- ExtraBold Wide
- Thin Extended
- UltraLight Extended
- Light Extended

- Medium Extended
- SemiBold Extended
- Bold Extended
- ExtraBold Extended
Personal note: Support for variable fonts is still being implemented across different apps/browsers. In my brief experience here, you don’t need to install the variable font AND individual styles. It’s one or the other. If you’re using variable fonts on the web I find text-rendering: geometricPrecision;
to help with readability.
It is still being refined as of the latest big update: June 07, 2018.
