@mishamyrt thanks for submitting this. Since we onboarded https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Fira+Code alongside https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Fira+Mono I'm not opposed to onboarding this.

Just to confirm is the overall design different from Plex Mono, or is the only change the addition of the ligatures?

@davelab6

It is mostly Plex Mono, but with the addition of Greek, some corrections and ligatures.

addition of Greek

From Plex Sans, made mono?

Partly adapted from Plex Sans, partly drawn in a similar style
