README.md
Hack 
a typeface designed for source code
No frills. No gimmicks. Hack is hand groomed by Christopher Simpkins and optically balanced to be a workhorse face for code. It has deep roots in the libre, open source typeface community and expands upon the contributions of the Bitstream Vera & DejaVu projects.
The font binaries are released under a license that permits unlimited print, desktop, and web use for commercial and non-commercial applications. More details in LICENSE.md
Quick installation
Windows
To simplify the installation process on Windows systems, we've created the Hack Windows Installer (.exe) which will guide you through the installation process. This installer addresses a number of common rendering issues that occur with font installs on the Windows platform and is the recommended approach on the Windows platform.
Mac OS X and Linux
- Download the latest version of Hack.
- Extract the files from the archive (
.zip) and open them. - Follow the instructions from your operating system.
- Enjoy!
NOTE ON UPDATING If you are updating your version of Hack, be sure to remove the previously installed version first to avoid conflicts.
Manual installation
We recommend use of the TrueType (.ttf) version of Hack for most users. A build with CFF curves (.otf) is available for those who prefer this format. For detailed installation instructions, see INSTALLATION.md.
Package managers
Because Hack is under active development and updates are released frequently, we highly recommended the convenience of a package manager or other auto-updating utility if this is available on your platform. While the package manager releases may be a bit delayed relative to the repository releases, the package managers automate and simplify font updates on your system.
- Mac OS X:
brew cask install caskroom/fonts/font-hack - Arch Linux:
pacman -S ttf-hack - Fedora / CentOS:
copr,dnforyum - Gentoo Linux:
emerge -av media-fonts/hack - Ubuntu / Debian:
apt-get install fonts-hack-ttf - Visual Studio (Package Manager):
install-package hack.font - Chocolatey:
choco install hackfont
Details on using package managers and/or advanced manual desktop installation options can be found in INSTALLATION.md.
Web font usage
Hack is available in all commonly used web font formats. See WEBFONT_USAGE.md for more details, or use the snippets below to quickly include Hack via a CDN (thanks to the generous gang at jsDelivr). Bold and italic styles are included by default and work out-of-the-box via the <strong> and <em> tags.

Additional tools for customization
font-line is a tool that lets you easily modify the default line spacing of Hack (20% UPM). See the font-line repository for more details, and be sure to check out the line-spacing directory of the repository for shell scripts that automate the entire process across several commonly used line spacing defaults.
