Getting Started
In this article, we will learn the basics of configuring fonts for different terminals. Specifically, we will use Alacrity, Kitty, and WezTerm as examples. We will also see how to patch our own font.
Nerd Fonts
Most of the fonts we are going to use will be from the Nerd Fonts repository. Depending on the OS, it provides different installation options.
The repository is big. To make it easy for installation, we would suggest
- Use the option of release archive download. This makes it easy to install the complete font family of variations (Bold, Italic, etc.).
- Use the
getnf
script.
