Nerd Fonts is a font aggregator, collection, and patcher that adds thousands of icon glyphs from popular icon sets (Font Awesome, Devicons, Octicons, Material Design Icons) to developer-targeted monospace fonts. It ships 50+ pre-patched fonts like Hack and Source Code Pro, plus a Python-based font patcher to patch your own fonts.
Use cases
- add icons to terminal prompt
- patched font with powerline glyphs
- font with devicons for vim statusline
- install hack font with nerd icons
- patch my own font with font awesome glyphs
- icons for tmux status bar
- monospace font with nerd font icons
When to choose
- you need icon glyphs in a terminal, shell prompt, editor statusline, or TUI
- you want a pre-patched version of a popular coding font
- you want to patch a custom font with icon glyphs
When to avoid
- you need a general-purpose UI icon library for web apps rather than monospace fonts
- you need proportional fonts or display fonts with icons
