## About Reddit Mono

Reddit Mono is a monospaced typeface in which every character occupies the same width. It was designed for Reddit and sits beside two proportional relatives, Reddit Sans and Reddit Sans Condensed; the official description calls its letterforms humanist. In the specimen the zero is slashed, the lowercase l curves at the foot and the i carries a top serif and a base stroke, which keeps look-alike characters apart, while round letters stay open and plain. The family is a variable font with a weight axis from 200 to 900 and eight named weights, ExtraLight to Black. There are no italics, so the 8 styles are all upright, in one variable file. The font holds 1,073 glyphs covering Latin, Latin Extended and Vietnamese. Stephen Hutchings and OrangeRed are credited, and Reddit, Inc. holds the copyright under the SIL Open Font License 1.1.

## Where it works

- **Code editors and terminals**: Fixed widths align indentation, and the slashed zero and tailed l separate 0 from O and l from 1.
- **Code blocks in documentation**: Reddit Sans comes from the same project, so inline code and prose can share related letter shapes.
- **Tables and logs**: Equal character widths line up columns of numbers, timestamps and IDs without table markup.
- **Syntax themes with weight contrast**: Eight weights allow keywords in SemiBold or Bold and comments in Light within one file.
- **Interface labels with data**: Medium and SemiBold keep short readouts such as counters and keys legible at small sizes.

## Things to know

- **No italics**: All eight styles are upright. Editors that italicise comments will slant the upright font artificially.
- **Weight starts at 200**: The axis runs from ExtraLight 200 to Black 900. There is no Thin 100.
- **One variable file**: The package contains a single variable font. Static weights are available from the official source.
