### Explanation
Once you narrow done your font choice of family (Droid Sans, Inconsolata, etc) and style (bold, italic, etc) you are provided with 3 main folders choices:
* complete
Once you narrow done your font choice of family (`Droid Sans`, `Inconsolata`, etc) and style (`bold`, `italic`, etc) you have 2 main choices:
* download an already patched font from the `complete` folder
* This is most likely the one you want. It includes **all** of the glyphs from all of the glyph sets. Only caution here is that some fonts have glyphs in the _same_ code point so to include everything some had to be moved to alternate code points.
* alternative
* This attempts to contain _all permutations_ of the various glyphs. E.g. You want the font with only [Octicons][octicons] or you want the font with just [Font Awesome][font-awesome] and [Devicons][vorillaz-devicons]. The goal is to provide every combination possible in this folder.
* minimal
* This contains just the glyphs needed to use [vim-devicons][vim-devicons]. This is mostly provided for historical purposes. This might end up being removed at some point if it ends up causing too much confusion and/or providing little purpose in the grand scheme of things.
* patch your own variations with the various options provided by the font patcher (see each font's readme for full list of combinations available)
* This contains a list of _all permutations_ of the various glyphs. E.g. You want the font with only [Octicons][octicons] or you want the font with just [Font Awesome][font-awesome] and [Devicons][vorillaz-devicons]. The goal is to provide every combination possible in this folder.
