  • Show HN: Coding Font – find your true love of coding fonts
    +1 Andale Mono, which isn't here. Played through the game (on MacOS), came here to ask if we could add a custom font into the game so I could put Andale Mono there. Fantasque Sans Mono on Github sends to: https://fontlibrary.org/en/font/fantasque-sans-mono Andale Mono is bundled with MacOS, and for Windows is here: https://sourceforge.net/projects/mscorefonts/files/MS%20Core%20Fonts/win/ And for Linux, here:... - Source: Hacker News / over 2 years ago

  • Monaspace
    Seems like in modern times, on modern systems, we can move beyond monospaced fonts for code. I have recommended this many times here, but I use a proportional coding font: Input Sans https://input.djr.com. - Source: Hacker News / 6 months ago
  • B612 Font Family
    Yes I ran into problem with distinguishing between ; and : as well on this monospace font. I'll say it was fun to try it and I used it for awhile but it isnt suitable for coding purposes. Im much more happy now with a highly customizable font like Input[0] where I can make it as wide or as narrow as I like it to be and also customize the various characters [0]: https://input.djr.com/. - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago
  • Bad Apple Font
    Does your browser have a "Reader" mode? There are font systems that target code and aren't monospace. An example is Input: https://input.djr.com/ - https://input.djr.com/preview/ The niche seems to be people who like to code without monospace, or who present code without monospace, e.g. In slides or in blog posts. Or if you want typographical consistency between non-code and code, as I understand you are suggesting. - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago
  • FiraCode: Free monospaced font with programming ligatures
    I’ve used Ligaturizer [2] to update the font to include ligatures. I believe the ligatures are even taken from FiraCode itself. I wonder how it’s fitting it to the width of a character as it’s much narrower, but still monospaced. - [1] https://input.djr.com/. - Source: Hacker News / 9 months ago
  • FiraCode: Free monospaced font with programming ligatures
    Hi! I’ve returned once more to recommend the Input family of typefaces. https://input.djr.com/ I’ve been code using Input Sans a (gasp!) proportional coding font for years now and I love it. Input also comes in a monospaced version FWIW. - Source: Hacker News / 9 months ago
