Licences

Starship Prompt Builder is MIT licensed and is not affiliated with or endorsed by any of the projects named below. It redistributes the following third-party work.

Bundled fonts

The terminal preview self-hosts 12 Nerd Fonts patched monospace families as woff2, so prompt glyphs render for visitors with no patched font installed. All were taken from the Nerd Fonts v3.5.0 release; only the Regular and Bold weights of each family’s Mono variant are bundled. Each licence below permits redistribution and web embedding.

The font picker’s System monospace option bundles nothing: it falls back to whatever monospace font the operating system provides.

Nerd Fonts patch layer

A patched build is a derivative work, so each font above carries its upstream licence plus the Nerd Fonts project’s own terms: MIT for the font-patcher tooling and SIL OFL 1.1 for the patched output and glyph sources, © 2014 Ryan L McIntyre. Upstream licence · Bundled licence text

Three families are renamed by Nerd Fonts for licence compliance. Cascadia Code, Source Code Pro and IBM Plex Mono are released under the OFL with the Reserved Font Names Cascadia Code, Source and Plex, and the OFL forbids a modified build from carrying a reserved name — so the patched versions ship as CaskaydiaCove, SauceCodePro and BlexMono. DejaVuSansM and NotoSansM are abbreviations rather than renames: OpenType family names are length-limited, so Mono is shortened to M.

Roboto Mono. Google relicensed the Roboto family to SIL OFL 1.1 in 2024, but the Nerd Fonts v3.5.0 build predates that: the patched binary declares Apache 2.0 in its own name table, and the release archive ships the Apache text. That is the grant governing the file bundled here, so that is what is recorded above; the current upstream OFL is an additional permission, not a replacement. Both permit redistribution and web embedding.
