Some other programming fonts

The website "Programming Fonts" has previews of hundreds of fonts.

With only Western glyphs

  • Fira Code is my favorite code-centric font.
  • As of 2026 March 3, the last compiled version was released on 2021 December 6, and I have more recently compiled versions in my fork of Fira Code.

With CJK / Han / Unihan glyphs

The future?

  1. You contribute to the project?
  2. Improve non-English text.
  3. Improve configuration management.
  4. Improve and generalize flow.
  5. Weights:
    1. Fira Code has six different weights.
    2. Source Han Mono has seven different weights.
    3. Monospaced Noto Sans CJK has two different weights.
    4. Replace English-language weight names with weight values. "Regular", for example, may become "400". Or maybe this would break something I don't understand.
  6. Glyphs:
    1. Noto Sans CJK may have updated and/or new glyphs.
    2. Source Han Code JP likely has updated and new glyphs.
    3. GB 18030-2022 defines new simplified Chinese glyphs. I suspect some of them are in Noto Sans CJK.
    4. Investigate: Adobe-Manga1-0 Character Collection.
    5. Investigate: can adobe-type-tools / CMap-resources help find updated and/or new glyphs?
  7. Reduce font file size.
  8. Formats:
    1. ❓.otf
    2. ❓variable font
    3. ❓.woff2
    4. ❓Keep .ttc
    5. ❓abc
    6. ❓CMap
    7. ❓abbr.
    8. ❓cmap
    9. ❓wolf9
  9. Create a pan-CJK variant.
  10. Spacing:
    1. ❓Eliminate all full width spaces?
    2. In "words" with mixed Latin and CJK, shift the CJK towards the Latin.

Working with the files in the repository

The repository is optimized to work with Visual Studio Code, but that is not required.

  1. Clone or fork the repository. (Visual Studio Code instructions.)

  2. Install the Python packages in a virtual environment with "uv"; from the folder with the repository, run:

    uv sync

Tips to make life easier

  1. In the names of files and fonts, don't use separators: - (hyphen), – (en dash), — (em dash), or similar characters. For some readers, they can be ambiguous due to 一, which is an ideograph representing "1".
  2. When preparing font files, only make changes in the "workbench" directory. Never change files in directories with glyph or metadata information unless you intend the change to be permanent and universal.

Comparison of weight names

Medium Medium Medium
SemiBold SemiBold Bold
Bold Bold Heavy

Compile the font files

Run go.py.

Make Five Source Han Mono Locale TTC files

Based on the out-of-date instructions in the Source Han Mono repository, this process produces one TTC file for each of the five locales in Source Han Mono. The files seem to work, and they are far smaller than the comprehensive TTC file. These files could be useful to you, and you can download the fonts from the "Release."

  1. Maximize locales, styles, and weights in "_theSSOT.py".
  2. Run foundry.smithyCasts_afdko('SourceHanMono').
  3. Run makeTTCLocale.cmd.

Commentary

  • Adobe writing "and/or" in their trademark notice is stupid.
  • The Mozilla Corporation has probably abandoned the Fira Mono trademark.
