# Fonts 🕹️

Monospace fonts are better optimized for code readability and alignment. Here is a list of awesome coding fonts that I've used in the past. But I always come back to `Fira Code`.

## Installing Fonts

### On Ubuntu

Even on same OS, installation procedure can vary between different fonts. On ubuntu, `open type` fonts generally live in `/usr/share/fonts/opentype/` folder.

* To install `Fira Code` you can simply type:
    ```bash
    $ sudo apt install fonts-firacode
    ```

* However, this often downloads older version of the font. Recently they released a sleeker version 2.0 of the font. To install that, download the font from [here.](https://github.com/tonsky/FiraCode/releases/download/2/FiraCode_2.zip). Unzip the font folder and go to `otf` folder. Then simply run:

    ```bash
    $ sudo cp -a . /usr/share/fonts/opentype/firacode
    ```
