Lilex is an open-source monospaced programming font built on top of IBM Plex Mono, designed for developers. It includes programming ligatures, contextual glyph alignment, variable weights from 100 to 700, Powerline characters, and support for Latin, Cyrillic, and Greek scripts.

Use cases

  • find a monospaced font with ligatures for my code editor
  • make programming symbols like == and => easier to read in my terminal
  • get a coding font that supports Cyrillic and Greek characters
  • use a variable-weight monospace font in VS Code or Zed
  • need a font with built-in Powerline glyphs for my terminal prompt
  • replace IBM Plex Mono with a developer-focused extended version

When to choose

  • you want a free, open-source (OFL) coding font with ligatures and variable weights
  • you need broad script coverage including Latin, Cyrillic, and Greek
  • you use Powerline-style terminal prompts and want built-in glyphs
  • you like IBM Plex Mono's look but want developer-specific enhancements

When to avoid

  • you dislike ligatures or prefer strictly ASCII-style glyph rendering
  • you need a proportional (non-monospaced) font for documents or UI
  • you require scripts beyond Latin, Cyrillic, and Greek
  • you want a font bundled by default in your editor rather than installed system-wide
