Might not be as highly demanded as Latin monospaced fonts, but still, it&amp;#x27;s great to have variety.&lt;p&gt;This is very much beta software as I haven&amp;#x27;t really tested the font outside of my personal setup. I&amp;#x27;ve had no type design experience prior to this project. Would love to hear your thoughts and feedback.</text></comment>

So much more readable than the other Arabic fonts I&amp;#x27;ve seen in the past.&lt;p&gt;This is a little far fetched, but I think is a huge win for society. Better Arabic fonts = easier Arabic-only speakers to do work online = more opportunity for a huge portion of the world.</text></comment>
