Hasklig VS source-code-pro

Hasklig because it includes ligatures useful for programming (although mainly focused on functional programming) & is visually pleasent. https://github.com/i-tu/Hasklig

Its 10000000% the font. I just tested Hasklig's regular font (this) and all of the boxes and question marks dissapear. Theres just one problems with this font. The text is weird af (pics below). It seems to like to smash characters together sometimes and others its cutting parts of them off.

Change to Hasklig font (https://github.com/i-tu/Hasklig)

I like to change it up, but I like Ubuntu Mono and right now I've been using Hasklig

In case anyone is wondering, I use Nord theme and Hasklig font with font ligatures on.

self: super: { hasklig = self.callPackage ({ lib, fetchzip }: let version = "1.2"; in fetchzip { name = "hasklig-${version}"; url = "https://github.com/i-tu/Hasklig/releases/download/v${version}/Hasklig-${version}.zip"; postFetch = '' unzip $downloadedFile install -m444 -Dt $out/share/fonts/opentype OTF/*.otf ''; sha256 = "sha256-8lY1m0P1qQIbR4e7kX68jVoKZmEfPWNwK3AFLoaBEak="; meta = with lib; { homepage = "https://github.com/i-tu/Hasklig"; description = "A font with ligatures for Haskell code based off Source Code Pro"; license = licenses.ofl; platforms = platforms.all; maintainers = with maintainers; [ davidrusu Profpatsch ]; }; }) {}; }

I keep wondering if I should try out a font with ligatures (probably Fira Code or Hasklig), but I haven't yet. Does anyone here use a ligature font with Raku? I'm not sure if the ligatures would fit right in with the Unicode glyphs or get confusing.

Hack is very underrated and awesome. Fira Code is nice, so is Adobe Source Code Pro [0], and Iosevka [1]. Yet, Berkeley is truly at its own level.

I've been using the free Source Code Pro (GitHub source). While it works well for coding of course, I find it is also pleasing to read from for large quantities of text. The characters are distinct (no confusion between 0O lI etc.) but understated, which is what you want for something you read thousands of words with every day.

Adobe has published several open-source fonts in their Source Sans family, and this one is monospaced and made explicitly for UI. Though the regular weight will work for most programming applications, a range of weights is available if you need them.

I prefer Source Code Pro for the terminal:

I went with Fira Code, but Source Code Pro is also good. More good fonts.

A couple of typefaces, comic neue and adobe source code pro - these are just hyperlinks; I don't install these automatically for some reason -

Source Code

Remove the package then download the VAR archive from their Github and extract the .ttf files to ~/.local/share/fonts or ~/.fonts
