Description
⚠️ Warning: This project is being impersonated
An untrusted website at firacode.com is impersonating this project. The site poses as an official resource. While it currently links to GitHub for downloads, the site operator can replace these links with malicious files at any moment without warning.
What the site does
- Copies the project name, description, and branding to appear legitimate
- Currently links to GitHub downloads, but these links are under the site operator's control and can be swapped out at any time
- May collect user data or serve tampered downloads in the future
