Fira Code
About Fira Code
Fira Code is a monospace typeface by Nikita Prokopov that extends Mozilla's Fira Mono with a carefully curated set of programming ligatures, turning multi-character sequences like arrows, comparisons, and operators into single fluid glyphs. The variable weight axis (wght) lets developers fine-tune stroke thickness without switching font files, and the face covers Cyrillic, Greek, and extended symbol ranges. It is the go-to choice for code editors and terminal emulators where ligature rendering is supported.
