I made a small, but useful to me, change to @donovan code. I added code to look up the latest version of nerd fonts and download those.

No need to introduce dependency on curl and jq. With proper download_url wget will be automatically redirected to the latest version
download_url="https://github.com/ryanoasis/nerd-fonts/releases/latest/download/${zip_file}"
