About

The main goal with this font was to have a monospace font (or fonts) with ligatures that was wider than the default Iosevka build, but still narrower than many of the other monospace fonts available, with each character being clear. I keep my build plans in an org-mode file, using the “literate programming” approach, as explained by Donald Knuth:

“Let us change our traditional attitude to the construction of programs: Instead of imagining that our main task is to instruct a computer what to do, let us concentrate rather on explaining to human beings what we want a computer to do.”

Installation

To download Josevka, or any of the variants, go to the latest release and download the font you want.

Development

Have an issue with the font, or want to suggest a possible design for one? Feel free to file an issue.

Known Issues

The rename.py script didn’t run in the workflow!

I am aware of the problem - as a temporary workaround, I’ve included it with the artifacts you want to download. Note that you will need python3-fontforge installed in order to use it on your system.
