}About the Hack coding font
Designed for programming, with clear and readable characters. Hack is a free monospace coding font without programming ligatures.
Hack is not hosted on Google Fonts. The specimen above renders in the real face when the font is installed on your device; if it is not installed, the page falls back to a standard monospace face so the layout stays intact. It is one of the 95 families in the CodeFont catalog.
