JetBrains Mono – the free and open-source typeface for developers

This is a convenience package to self host the JetBrains Mono font for use in web apps.

I don’t claim any rights to the font itself, I just wrote the CSS file.

This package is based on the version 2.242 of the font.

This version is listed as «2.300 (unreleased) EAP» in the changelog.

npm install jetbrains-mono

The default export of this package is a CSS file. Load it as follows:

Alternatively, you can just include it in HTML like this:

link rel pl-s">stylesheet" href pl-s">./node_modules/jetbrains-mono/css/jetbrains-mono.css">

The variant of the font without ligatures (JetBrains Mono NL) is also available:

link rel pl-s">stylesheet" href pl-s">./node_modules/jetbrains-mono/css/jetbrains-mono-nl.css">

Set the $font-dir variable to the correct path, as shown here:

$font-dir: './node_modules/jetbrains-mono/fonts/webfonts'; @import '~jetbrains-mono/scss/jetbrains-mono';

@import '~jetbrains-mono/scss/jetbrains-mono-nl';

JetBrains Mono typeface is available under the OFL-1.1 License and can be used free of charge, for both commercial and non-commercial purposes.

JetBrains Mono: a typeface made for developers

JetBrains Mono is available as a standalone download, and is also bundled in all JetBrains IDEs. Discover more font features & design on its web page.

Default version of JetBrains Mono comes with OpenType features and ligatures (which can always be toggled on & off in the settings). If your IDE doesn’t support OpenType, use a special version of the font — JetBrains Mono NL, which doesn’t include any ligatures.

Installation

JetBrains IDEs

The most recent version of JetBrains Mono ships with your JetBrains IDE starting with v2019.3.

Select JetBrains Mono in the IDE settings: go to Preferences/Settings → Editor → Font , and then select JetBrains Mono from the Font dropdown.

brew tap homebrew/cask-fonts

brew install --cask font-jetbrains-mono

1. Download font.
2. Unzip the archive and install the font:
   • Mac. Select all font files in the folder and double-click them. Click the Install Font button.
   • Windows. Select all font files in the folder, right-click any of them, then pick Install from the menu.

Note If you have previously installed JetBrains Mono, please uninstall all previous versions to exclude conflicts and errors in rendering.

Open a terminal and run the following:

/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/JetBrains/JetBrainsMono/master/install_manual.sh)"

Once JetBrains Mono is installed in your OS, you are ready to configure the editor.

Visual Studio Code

1. From the File menu (Code on Mac) go to Preferences → Settings , or use keyboard shortcut Ctrl + , ( Cmd + , on Mac).
2. In the Editor: Font Family input box type JetBrains Mono , replacing any content.
3. To enable ligatures, go to Editor: Font Ligatures, click Edit in settings.json, and copy this line «editor.fontLigatures»: true into json file.

More ways to install

There are 8 font styles available in JetBrains Mono, from Thin to ExtraBold, each coming with its own italic version.

While characters remain standard in width, the height of the lowercase is maximized. This approach keeps code lines to the length that developers expect, and it helps improve rendering in small size, since each symbol occupies more pixels.

Distinctiveness of symbols

A ligature is a character consisting of two or more joined symbols. Traditionally, it was introduced as a space-saving technique in printed texts. In code, this technique is adopted to show operators and is used mainly for two purposes:

1. To reduce noise by merging symbols and removing details so the eyes are processing less:

Note if your IDE doesn’t support OpenType features and ligatures, use JetBrains Mono NL instead.

Starting from v2.304, JetBrains Mono has added support for alternate characters. Stylistic Sets ss01-20 usually change a group of characters. Character Variant cv01-99 usually changes only one character. Here are the instructions for enabling these features.

You can find full JetBrains Mono character set on our wiki page.

Building from source files

Note To build from source, you’d need Python 3.9.5 or higher (install instructions for Python available here).

The source files can be found in the «Source» folder. To open them you will need Glyphs app.
To build the .ttf , .otf , woff2 & variable .ttf you will need to:

• Install gftools pip install gftools
• Install fonttools[woff] pip install fonttools[woff]
• Navigate to JetBrainsMono folder in Terminal app.
• Type gftools builder sources/config.yaml in Terminal and run it.
• Type python scripts/generate_variable_webfonts.py in Terminal and run it to generate variable woff2 files.
• After the scripts are complete, the files can be found in fonts folder.

JetBrains Mono typeface is available under the OFL-1.1 License and can be used free of charge, for both commercial and non-commercial purposes. You do not need to give credit to JetBrains, although we will appreciate it very much if you do.

The source code is available under Apache 2.0 License

JetBrains’ New Font Makes Reading Code Easier

Their terminal-tailored typographic creation is called (surprise) JetBrains Mono. And they claim their new font makes reading code kinder on the eyes.

Admittedly it feels a little bit like everyone has their own monospace font these days: 2017 gave us IBM Plex, 2019 Microsoft’s Cascadia, and even Ubuntu has its own code font created specifically for the command line.

But with JetBrains being — hey, you knew this pun was coming — the brains behind some of the world’s best-loved development and code creation tools it kinda makes sense for them, out of anyone, to have their own monospace font.

And lo: the creation of JetBrains Mono.

JetBrains Mono Font is Open Source

Because we read code in a different way to standard text in a box (i.e. with code our eyes move vertically as well as horizontally, and irregularly) JetBrains Mono was crafted with reading speed, comprehension, legibility and, yes, eye fatigue in mind.

“We have considered things like the size and shape of letters; the amount of space between them, a balance naturally engineered in monospace fonts; unnecessary details and unclear distinctions between symbols, such as I’s and l’s for example; and programming ligatures when developing our font,” they say.

Their font certainly looks taller than Consolas at 13px — and dare I say less fuzzy too (compression excepted in the image above).

13px is the recommended font size, while line spacing is suggested at 1.2.

This technical finesse is thread throughout the entire construction of the JetBrains Mono, with attention being given to the needs, issues, and impressions of people writing and reading code daily above ‘ooh, that looks good’.

The font comes in a variety of weights (including italic, medium, bold and extra bold) and supports (as of writing) code ligatures, diacritics, and cyrillic across 143 languages.

You can download JetBrains Mono from its dedicated website or by gapingly lovingly at the following button:

JetBrains Mono is supplied as a .ttf file. This font format works pretty everywhere and anywhere (including Ubuntu, so tenuous link unlocked).

The .zip also includes JetBrain mono is a variety of font weights, including extra-light, semi-bold, and extra-bold; a variable version is included; and you can choose whether to install JetBrain Mono with/without ligatures.

Do note that if you’re running the most recent version of the JetBrains IDE (many available via the Snapcraft store) then you may already have the new font — so check first.
