Add Nerd Fonts

[jsanzdev]

Can the Nerd Fonts added so we can use these fonts in the terminals?

It would be amazing to have these type of Icons included!

I currently use the MesloLGS NF build from here https://github.com/ryanoasis/nerd-fonts/ It would be great to have nerd fonts already integrated. If this has to be done by ourselves (or in the nerd-font repo), please give a hint.

Edit: There is already an issue over there. Maybe that's the corrects place for this issue: https://github.com/ryanoasis/nerd-fonts/issues/1403

Yes please 👍

Yes! powerlevel10k FTW!

[AvidDabbler]

not ideal but this is my current work around for this in iterm2

[igbanam]

This works perfectly, @AvidDabbler — thank you!

[znmeb]

I'll test this in WSL tomorrow! I've got zsh / powerlevel10k configured there and I just need to load Monaspace into Windows.

[SalahEddineGhamri]

Yes, please. this font is the new FiraCode.

If you're on Linux here's how to have emojis and nerdfonts with any unpatched font: https://dev.to/moniquelive/using-nerd-font-symbols-and-emoji-with-any-unpatched-font-in-linux-3kdo

Update here: alas, because Nerdfont has lots of logos of businesses, this needs some approval from legal, and I have a hard time forecasting how long this is going to take. But the good news is that there might be some work already happening for Cascadia Code (also MSFT) which we might be able to follow in the footsteps of. Stay tuned, just wanted to let you know that we're trying to figure this out!

Is that why they replaced the Debian "swirl" with an up-arrow? :-)

Certain licenses don’t allow modified redistribution of the same name.

Now that Cascadia Code has figured out how to do this from a legal perspective, I think we can probably follow in their footsteps!

I found a way to use the Nerd Font Symbols Nerd Font as a fallback font, which works perfectly with all fonts. This eliminates the need to install the Nerd Font version of each specific font.

you can download this font from Nerd font repo https://github.com/ryanoasis/nerd-fonts/releases/download/v3.2.1/NerdFontsSymbolsOnly.zip

settings in vscode as follows "terminal.integrated.fontFamily": "'Monaspace Neon', 'Symbols Nerd Font'"

alternatively if needed, there is script to generate Nerd font also. https://github.com/ryanoasis/nerd-fonts#font-patcher

Hope that solves

That's useful, but not all software supports fallback fonts.
