16## Zero Configuration Philosophy
17
18> Ghostty is designed to work out of the box with no configuration for most users. Ghostty has sensible defaults, embeds a default font (JetBrains Mono), has built-in nerd fonts, and more. We are constantly challenging ourself as a project to eliminate any _necessary configuration_ to use Ghostty.
