Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist * Package name : fonts-jetbrains-mono Version : 1.0.2 Upstream Author : Philipp Nurullin * URL : https://github.com/JetBrains/JetBrainsMono * License : Apache-2 Programming Lang: TTF Description : a typeface for developers
The URL above also has a "source" directory which ships "FontLab 6" files (VFC and VFJ): https://help.fontlab.com/fontlab-vi/Font-Formats/ I am not sure those can be edited with free software, but I am wondering if the TTF is sufficient to fulfill DFSG requirements. I don't have a good long description - kind of hard to do that by text when fonts are so visual. But the main website does give a very good idea of the thing: https://www.jetbrains.com/lp/mono/ There is obviously quite a few similar "programmer" fonts out there. Looking in my archives, I find this in Debian: * fonts-firacode: ligatures * fonts-hack-*: no ligatures * fonts-hermit: no ligatures, smaller * fonts-monoid: ligatures, feels much "thinner" than jetbrains Those are also "programmer fonts" that caught my interest but somehow didn't land in Debian yet: * sudo: https://www.kutilek.de/sudo-font/ personal project, no ligatures * Iosevka: https://typeof.net/Iosevka/ ligatures, multilingual ... so that's already quite a few more than I expected, actually. Maybe there's no room for this in Debian? But I'm curious to hear what others think of this... Thanks!
