Custom version of JetBrains Mono font.

Primary LanguagePython

NRK Mono

This is a modified version of JetBrains Mono based on v2.304.

Preview


You can download the ttf files from the releases tab (grab the .tar.zst file).


Some notable changes are:

  • Patched with Nerd-Font-Patcher (search for FontPatcher.zip).
  • Slashed zero instead of dotted one.
  • Uses the alternate u with a downwards bar.
  • Uses the alternate g with a rounded bottom.
  • Uses the alternate/old 5.
  • Uses old J with a bar on top.
  • All non-alphanumeric ascii chars have been taken from v2.001.
  • All non-alphanumeric ascii chars have medium thickness.
  • Modified ascent/descent to workaround the line height issue (this may cause problems with certain glyphs).
  • Additional "Condensed" variant (-6%) available to better utilize horizontal screen space.

License

Same as JetBrainsMono.

How to extract .tar.zst

Linux/BSD/macos

  1. Install the zstd package (if you don't have it installed already).
  2. Run tar -I zstd -xf NRK-Mono.tar.zst.

Windows

If you want a GUI then 7-zip-zstd (.exe download here) seems to be the recommended tool.

If you are comfortable with command-line, zstd provides official builds for windows including a zstd.exe.

Changelog v2.1.0

  • The ttf files are no longer checked into the git repo (use the releases tab instead).
  • The font patching/building is now done through a series of scripts.
  • Condensed version is back.
  • Changed g to the googly variant.
  • Patched u more comprehensively. The previous version only patched the ASCII u and left different variants (such as ù) untouched.

Changelog v2.0.0

This update brings a lot of breaking changes:

  • Updated from JetBrains Mono v2.001 to v2.304.
    • The Win {Ascent,Descent} properties have been adjusted to workaround the increased line height issue. This may cause problems with certain glyphs.
    • If the new version seems more condensed than the previous, then you might need to slightly increase your font size (e.g from 13 to 13.15).
    • The f was reverted to an older version, which you might or might not like.
  • Updated to Nerd Font v3.0.0.
    • Nerd font v3.0.0 made a lot of breaking changes to their icon code-points. If you are missing icons after updating, you'll need to update your icons to the new nerd-font code-points.
  • Dropped the "Condensed" variant.
