AFIO - Custom Iosevka Nerd Font

More weight examples at the bottom of this page

Why AFIO?

Iosevka is one of the most customizable coding fonts out there: hundreds of glyph variants, adjustable spacing, weight, and width. BUT if you want Nerd Font icons (powerline symbols, devicons, file icons), you're stuck with the prebuilt versions that ship a few default configurations. No custom glyphs, no weight tuning, no width control. Take it or leave it.

This repo is two things in one:

1. AFIO: a ready-to-use font. Just grab it from releases and install. Hand-picked glyph variants, carefully tuned weights, 9000+ Nerd Font icons, all done for you. Details: Use AFIO as-is

2. A template for building your own custom Iosevka + Nerd Font. Fork this repo, edit private-build-plans.toml to your taste, push 🚀 and GitHub Actions will build and release your font automatically. No local setup needed 🤷 Details: Build your own
