BlexMono Nerd Font (IBM Plex Mono) is a font you can install on a Mac.

About

BlexMono Nerd Font (IBM Plex Mono) is a set of font files based on IBM Plex Mono and patched with additional glyphs from the Nerd Fonts project. It is a font family, not an application; after installing it, choose the desired font in your editor or terminal’s font settings.

The files include three glyph-width variants: BlexMonoNerdFontMono for monospaced glyphs, BlexMonoNerdFontPropo for proportional glyphs, and BlexMonoNerdFont for the standard variant. They cover multiple weights, including Thin, ExtraLight, Light, Regular, Text, Medium, SemiBold, and Bold; italic files are also included for several styles. Nerd Fonts describes its patched fonts as adding glyphs such as icons from popular icon sets.

Install with Homebrew:

brew install --cask font-blex-mono-nerd-font

After installation, select the specific BlexMono Nerd Font style you want in a compatible application. This cask installs font files; it does not install a separate app.
