About:
Plangothic is an open-source font project designed to provide comprehensive coverage for CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) characters. It serves as a unified font solution, merging and harmonizing glyphs from various sources to support a wide range of Unicode code points. This package provides the Plangothic font family for system-wide installation via Homebrew Cask.
Key Features:
  • Extensive CJK character coverage
  • Open-source and freely available
  • Harmonized design across multiple scripts
  • Available in multiple font weights
Use Cases:
  • Displaying multilingual text in CJK languages
  • Development environments requiring broad Unicode support
  • Documents containing mixed Chinese, Japanese, and Korean text
Alternatives:
  • font-noto-sans-cjk – Google's Noto Sans CJK is a widely supported alternative, while Plangothic offers a different design aesthetic and community-driven approach.
  • font-source-han-sans – Source Han Sans is an open-source sans-serif typeface, similar in scope but with distinct design choices.
