Custom Zed Mono and Zed Sans typefaces built from Iosevka, created for the Zed code editor and licensed under the SIL Open Font License. The repository archives these previous default fonts, as Zed now ships with IBM Plex Sans and Lilex.

Use cases

  • download the Zed Mono monospace font for my editor
  • find the Zed Sans quasi-proportional UI typeface
  • build custom Iosevka font variants
  • use the fonts Zed editor used previously
  • get an OFL-licensed monospace coding font

When to choose

  • you want the original Zed Mono/Sans typefaces for an editor or terminal
  • you need a monospace font with ligature-friendly Iosevka lineage under an open license
  • you want a quasi-proportional sans font that still feels monospace for UI work

When to avoid

  • you need the current default Zed fonts, which are IBM Plex Sans and Lilex
  • you need an actively developed font project with ongoing releases
  • you require a license file - the repo has no explicit license attached
