Hi,
Have we any good way to install nerd fonts on kde ? or better than manual way [1] ?
I'm moving to lazyvim and wasn't easy find and install nerd fonts to correct the icons ...
Best regards,
[1] wget -P ~/.local/share/fonts https://github.com/ryanoasis/nerd-fonts/releases/download/v3.2.1/JetBrainsMo... \ && cd ~/.local/share/fonts \ && unzip JetBrainsMono.zip \ && rm JetBrainsMono.zip \ && fc-cache -fv
Hello Sergio,
As a Nerd Font user, I can tell that there is no easy way. The problem with Nerd Fonts on Fedora is because of the license of some fonts. You can use the Manual Way [1] that is basically clone the whole repo and run the steps you have but with a script. I never tried it for just one font, but it seems to have the capability. You need to keep the repository updated manually.
Best regards,

Hey! Totally get the struggle—installing Nerd Fonts on KDE can be a bit clunky manually. We're actually putting together a smoother, step-by-step guide for this on https://xtrasaas.com, especially with LazyVim in mind. In the meantime, a good workaround is using a font manager like FontBase or scripting the install via a package manager (e.g., using yay on Arch-based distros). More coming soon!

Looks like spam.

Yeah, installing Nerd Fonts on KDE can be a bit clunky manually. The method you shared works, but for an easier approach, you could try using a font manager like Font Downloader from KDE Discover, or even scripts from the Nerd Fonts repo directly.
I recently wrote about setting up a smooth dev environment at TalkSocially.com—might be helpful if you're diving into LazyVim too!

You posted what appears to be the exact same message three times. Also, users of HyperKitty should be aware that many (most?) people are reading this via the mailing list, so it's important to quote the context of what you want to comment on.
