## What it is
JuliaMono is a free, open-source monospaced typeface designed for scientific and technical programming, with comprehensive Unicode coverage for specialist characters. It is distributed under the SIL Open Font License and works across macOS, Unix, and Windows in editors like VS Code, Vim, and Emacs.

## Use cases
- displaying scientific and mathematical Unicode symbols in a code editor
- finding a monospaced font with wide Unicode glyph coverage
- rendering Julia code with proper technical characters
- using a consistent coding font across macOS, Linux, and Windows
- choosing a font with multiple weights that keep alignment
- embedding a monospaced web font on a documentation site

## When to choose
- you write scientific or technical code with lots of Unicode symbols
- you need a free, liberally licensed monospaced font
- you want ligatures and stylistic alternates in your editor font
- you need many weights that share identical character widths

## When to avoid
- you need a proportional (non-monospaced) typeface for prose
- you require a very small font file with minimal glyph coverage
- you need a font designed for non-technical document typesetting

## Facets
