Variations

Font Installation

Option 1: Download and Install Manually

Best option for quickly getting a specific individual font.

Download the specific patched font of your choice

Option 2: Release Archive Download

Best option if you want an archive or complete font family of variations (Bold, Italic, etc.).

Fonts are available for download as packages in the latest release

Option 3: Install Script

Best option if you want to automate installing or for use in scripts.

Note: Requires cloning the repo as of now

All fonts:

  • Installs all the patched Fonts (Warning: This is a lot of Fonts adding up to a large size)
./install.sh

or, in Powershell (Windows only):

./install.ps1

Single font:

  • Installs a single Font of your choice
./install.sh <FontName>
./install.sh Hack
./install.sh HeavyData

or, in Powershell (Windows only):

./install.ps1 <FontName>
./install.ps1 Hack
./install.ps1 HeavyData
./install.ps1 FiraCode, Hack
./install.ps1 CascadiaCode -WindowsCompatibleOnly
./install.ps1 DejaVuSansMono -WhatIf

Option 4: Homebrew Fonts

Best option if on macOS and want to use Homebrew.

All fonts are available via Homebrew Cask Fonts on macOS (OS X)

brew tap homebrew/cask-fonts
brew install --cask font-hack-nerd-font

Option 5: Clone the Repo

Best option for full control, all or some of the fonts, or contributing to development.

A full clone of this repository is not required nor efficient (mostly due to Repository size) if you are simply only interested in a limited set of fonts.

If you do want to clone the entire repo be sure to shallow clone:

git clone --depth 1

If you want to clone a sub-directory, use git sparse-checkout. The following example requires Git v2.26:

git clone --filter=blob:none --sparse [email protected]:ryanoasis/nerd-fonts
cd nerd-fonts
git sparse-checkout add patched-fonts/JetBrainsMono

Option 6: Ad Hoc Curl Download

Option if you want to use the curl command or for use in scripts.

Linux

mkdir -p ~/.local/share/fonts
cd ~/.local/share/fonts && curl -fLo "Droid Sans Mono for Powerline Nerd Font Complete.otf" https://github.com/ryanoasis/nerd-fonts/raw/HEAD/patched-fonts/DroidSansMono/complete/Droid%20Sans%20Mono%20Nerd%20Font%20Complete.otf

Note: deprecated alternative paths: ~/.fonts

macOS (OS X)

cd ~/Library/Fonts && curl -fLo "Droid Sans Mono for Powerline Nerd Font Complete.otf" https://github.com/ryanoasis/nerd-fonts/raw/HEAD/patched-fonts/DroidSansMono/complete/Droid%20Sans%20Mono%20Nerd%20Font%20Complete.otf

Option 7: Unofficial Arch User Repository (AUR)

Option for Arch Linux and wanting to use AUR packages.

The following fonts are available via AUR packages on Arch Linux:

The list is not complete, but you can search for a complete list here.

Option 8: Patch Your Own Font

The option for patching your own font or fully customizing the patched font.

Use the provided Python command line script to generate a patched font from your own font to get the extra new glyphs

See: Font Patcher for usage

  • use this option if you do not want to use one of the fonts provided
  • you will still need to copy the generated font to the correct font directory on your system

Nerd Fonts Patcher

Patching the font of your own choosing for use with the VimDevIcons ➶:

  • requires: Python 2 (or Python 3), python-fontforge package (version 20141231 or later, see the install instructions)

  • alternative method on Linux: Using the AppImage

  • alternative method using Docker: Docker Hub

  • Usage:

    ./font-patcher PATH_TO_FONT
    
  • Alternative usage: Execute the patcher with the FontForge binary using the script flag:

    fontforge -script font-patcher PATH_TO_FONT
    
  • Patching fonts using the AppImage:

    Note: chmod u+x the AppImage after download. All supplied paths need to be absolute and an explicit output path is required! If everything is located in the same directory, you can use the $PWD shorthand.

    ./FontForge.AppImage -script $PWD/font-patcher $PWD/BaseFont.ttf -out /tmp
