〽️ Monaco font for IDE

Patched Monaco font for use in popular IDEs and editors (e.g. PhpStorm/WebStorm/NetBeans/IntelliJ/etc.)

❓ Why?

Monaco is a nice font for the code. I really like it. But it looks ugly in the Java-based IDEs on Linux. I tried to google a solution for this but exiting options was really weird or had limitations. So, I decided to patch it fix those issues.

  • Cyrillic symbols support out-of-the-box
  • Works well on Linux and Windows
