    Source Code Pro

    Source Code Pro

    Monospaced font family for user interface and coding environments

    Monospaced font family for user interface and coding environments. Source Code Pro is a set of OpenType fonts that have been designed to work well in user interface (UI) environments. The fonts' source files and build instructions are available in the repository's master branch. Provides several types and styles of fonts for coding purposes. To build the binary font files from source, you need Python 3 along with the Adobe Font Development Kit for OpenType (AFDKO) and FontTools packages. The key to building the OTF fonts is makeotf, which is part of the AFDKO toolset. Information and usage instructions can be found by executing makeotf -h. The TTFs are generated with the otf2ttf and ttfcomponentizer tools. For convenience, a shell script named build.sh is provided in the root directory. It builds all OTFs and TTFs into a directory called target/.
