macOS

In the downloaded TTF folder:

  1. Select all font files
  2. Right click and select Open (alternatively Open With Font Book)
  3. Select "Install Font"

or

  • Use brew and cask:

    Not officially supported, might install outdated version

    brew tap homebrew/cask-fonts
    brew cask install font-fira-code

Linux

or

  • In the ttf folder double-click each font file and click “Install font”; see “Manual Installation” if double-clicking doesn't work

FreeBSD

  • Using pkg(8): pkg install firacode

or

  • Using ports: cd /usr/ports/x11-fonts/firacode && make install clean

Windows

  • In the ttf folder, double-click each font file, click “Install font”; to install all at once, select all files, right-click, and choose “Install”
  • On some systems (especially Windows 10), you may need to "Unblock" each font file before installing. To do so, right-click each font file, click Properties, then check Unblock next to Security at the bottom of the General tab. Click OK, and then install. Note: Skipping this step may cause the Fira Code fonts to intermittently stop working in VS Code, even though the fonts still appear in other programs.

or

  • Use chocolatey: choco install firacode-ttf Note: chocolately will install Fira Code 2.0; the current version is 3.1

  • Use scoop:

    Run as administrator

    scoop bucket add nerd-fonts
    scoop install firacode
