About:
ProFont Nerd Font is a modified version of the classic ProFont monospaced programming font, patched to include a vast library of programming ligatures, icons, and glyphs from popular dev icon sets. It is specifically designed to enhance code readability in terminals and IDEs by replacing complex text sequences with intuitive symbols. This package provides the patched font files for macOS users via Homebrew Cask.

Key Features:

Patched with 3,000+ glyphs and icons (Devicons, Font Awesome, Material Design)
Monospaced layout optimized for coding and terminal usage
Includes Powerline symbols for enhanced editor status lines
Available in multiple formats (OTF, TTF, WOFF) and weights

Use Cases:

Improving visual clarity of codebases in IDEs like VS Code or Vim
Displaying git branch status and system metrics in terminal prompts
Rendering UI icons within CLI tools and scripts

Alternatives:

font-meslolgs-nerd-font – Meslo is a modified version of Apple's Menlo font, offering a slightly different aesthetic and larger character width than ProFont
font-fira-code – Fira Code includes native programming ligatures but lacks the extensive icon set of Nerd Fonts unless patched
