About:
Chivo Mono is a monospaced typeface designed for programming and terminal environments, derived from the Chivo sans-serif family. It offers excellent legibility at small sizes with distinct characters to prevent confusion between similar glyphs. The font includes multiple weights and supports extensive language coverage for international development workflows.
Key Features:
  • Multiple weight variants from Thin to Black
  • Optimized character differentiation (zero, O, I, l)
  • Excellent small-size rendering for code editors
  • OpenType features including tabular figures and ligatures
  • Broad Unicode and language support
Use Cases:
  • Daily programming in IDEs and text editors
  • Terminal and command-line interface usage
  • Technical documentation and code snippets
Alternatives:
  • font-fira-code – Fira Code includes programming ligatures, while Chivo Mono maintains traditional monospaced rendering
  • font-jetbrains-mono – JetBrains Mono is optimized for IntelliJ IDEs, Chivo Mono offers a more geometric sans-derived aesthetic
  • font-source-code-pro – Source Code Pro is Adobe's open-source monospace, Chivo Mono provides a more modern geometric feel
