TODO

• Update README images and/or ideally generate them every release
• Windows friendly fontfamily name (might be already good, just need to test it)

Download

Check releases page

Motivation

• Iosevka has a lot of modificaions, but Nerd Font repo has only a few of them
• don't need italic and oblique versions (so can speed up compilation)
• need only specific font weights (e.g. 200 300 400 500)
• need to fake bold weight to 500
• need specific base font width
• need nerd font icons
• need oneliner to build everything :)

Key modifications

• Changed m i l % 0 and others
• Changed font weights (e.g. "bold" has weight 500)
• No italic and oblique versions by default
• Base font shape width is 6

For more options edit: private-build-plans.toml and build

Build it yourself with Docker

./build.sh

Fonts will be in _output dir.
