Logseq/Entity/Font

• Font

  • In this garden, Font pages model named typefaces and font families installed and used across terminals, editors, and other tools in the developer environment.

  • Examples in this garden

    • JetBrains/Font/Mono Nerd — monospaced programming font patched with Nerd Font icon glyphs; installed via homebrew cask.

  • When we treat something as a font

    • Strong signals: a named typeface family installed on the system; referred to by font-family string in terminal or editor config; downloadable as a .ttf/.otf/.woff file or distributed via a homebrew cask.
    • Not this type: font patchers, aggregators, or patcher projects (e.g. Font/nerdfonts, Font/Nerd Font) — model those as Logseq/Entity/Software/Project.

  • How to name the main page for a font

    • When the font's creator has an existing namespace in the garden, use Creator/Font/<Short Name> — the Font segment is the type, and the leaf drops redundant creator and type words. Example: JetBrains/Font/Mono Nerd (not JetBrains/JetBrains Mono Nerd Font). See Logseq/Pref/Page/Name for the general creator-namespace rule.
    • When no creator namespace exists, use Font/<Font Name> as a fallback (e.g. Font/unscii, Font/Robotization Mono).
    • For nerd-font-patched variants under a creator namespace, append "Nerd" to the base name leaf (e.g. Mono Nerd); "Font" is already carried by the namespace segment.
    • The full display name or common shorthand goes in alias:: only when codekiln asks for it (e.g. alias:: [[JetBrains Mono Nerd Font]]), per My/AI/Rule/Logseq/No Aliases Unless Asked.

  • Finding and deduplicating

    • Check in this order: Creator/Font/<Name> page, Font/<Name> fallback, aliases, font-family string matches in terminal or editor config pages. Classify as: existing, similar, new, or blocked.

  • Frontmatter

    • Set logseq-entity:: [[Logseq/Entity/Font]] to mark a page as a font instance.
    • Set is-nerd-font:: true when the font is patched with Nerd Font icon glyphs; see also Font/Nerd Font.
    • created-by:: — optional; link to the person or company page when the creator is tracked in the garden.
    • see-also:: — link to Font/Nerd Font for nerd font variants; related font or terminal pages.
    • Shared frontmatter conventions live on Logseq/Frontmatter.

  • Page shape

    • First block: H1 with a Markdown link to the font's official homepage or GitHub repo.
    • Keep it lean: name, brief description, install command (e.g. brew install --cask font-<name>), font-family strings used in terminal configs, and nerd font status.
