Aggregators (Fontesk, JustFreeFonts, etc.) are intentionally omitted — verify each face at the publisher; prefer primary OFL sources.

Helena Zhang’s monospaced pixel face under SIL OFL. Strong fit for terminals, low-res HUDs, and retro UI.

Helena Zhang’s monospaced pixel face under SIL OFL 1.1. Strong fit for terminals, low-res HUDs, and retro UI. Site/code is MIT; the **font** is OFL — use the font license when shipping.

## Notes
21+
22+
- Primary download: [departuremono.com](https://departuremono.com) / [GitHub releases](https://github.com/rektdeckard/departure-mono/releases)
23+
- Pixel-perfect sizes: increments of **11px** (per upstream README)
24+
- When redistributing font files, keep the OFL copyright + license text with the build (credits/licenses folder is fine)
25+
- Attribution example: `Departure Mono © Helena Zhang — SIL OFL 1.1`
26+
27+
## Evidence
28+
29+
- GitHub README Licenses table: Font = SIL OFL; Site = MIT
30+
- `public/assets/LICENSE`: “This Font Software is licensed under the SIL Open Font License, Version 1.1.” (Copyright 2022–2024 Helena Zhang). OFL permits bundling/embedding/selling with software; fonts must not be sold by themselves.

Google’s SIL OFL family with broad script coverage including CJK — default pick for localization-friendly UI text.

Google’s SIL OFL family with broad script coverage including CJK — default pick for localization-friendly UI text. Bundle the faces you need; do not treat “download free” as a separate license.

20+
## Notes
21+
22+
- License source of truth: Noto project `LICENSE` (SIL OFL 1.1) — also mirrored via Google Fonts
23+
- OFL: embed/bundle/sell **with** software OK; cannot sell the font files alone; derivatives stay OFL
24+
- Keep OFL notice with redistributed font binaries
25+
- Attribution example: `Noto Sans © The Noto Project Authors — SIL OFL 1.1`
26+
27+
## Evidence
28+
29+
- Live-checked `https://raw.githubusercontent.com/notofonts/noto-fonts/main/LICENSE` (2026-07-19): “This Font Software is licensed under the SIL Open Font License, Version 1.1.” — OFL text states fonts may be “bundled, embedded, redistributed and/or sold with any software.”
30+
- Google Fonts Noto hub (`fonts.google.com/noto`) remains the distribution entrypoint; page is JS-heavy so license verified via upstream LICENSE file.
