# 0xPropo

Just the proportional version of [0xProto](https://github.com/0xType/0xProto).

## NOTICE

- **Not for coding**: If you’re a software engineer looking for a monospaced font for programming, use [0xProto](https://github.com/0xType/0xProto) instead.

- **Highly experimental**: still has only Medium weight.

## Why I made the proportional version of 0xProto

I like the programmatic and typewriter-like retro feel of monospace fonts, and have been using them even when I’m not coding.

However, as the name suggests, all letters in a monospace font are the same width, so `m` and `H` are too close together, and `i` and `l` have too much space, which I found difficult to use in natural language texts.

0xPropo is a font that retains the atmosphere and beauty of a monospace font and solves the above difficulties in using monospace fonts for writing natural language.

I am using 0xPropo on [matype.xyz](https://matype.xyz/) on a trial basis, so please take a peek.
