Where it works

Source Code Pro is also a free alternative to…

Courier → Adobe's open-source monospace, drawn by Paul D. Hunt for coding and UI. Wider apertures and more generous spacing than Courier — sharper at small screen sizes, the workhorse choice for code blocks and technical documentation.

Pairings

Display + body that work together

A grammar of empty space

Body type does the heavy lifting. Get it right and the reader never thinks about it; get it wrong and they feel it before they can name what is off.

Mono · Editorial Source Code Pro + Crimson Pro

Letters that hold their nerve

The display sets the register; the body follows through. When both halves of a pair pull in the same direction, the design disappears and the words come forward.
