cascadia-code VS fantasque-sans

It's Cascadia Code: https://github.com/microsoft/cascadia-code/

Previously, [VictorMono](https://rubjo.github.io/victor-mono/), but now I am rocking: [JetBrainsMono](https://www.jetbrains.com/lp/mono/) and [Cascadia Code](https://github.com/microsoft/cascadia-code)

Not sure what causes it, maybe the font was installed in a format JetBrains doesn't support? In any case, installing the TTF files from the github repo worked for me.

I've completely fallen for Cascadia Code - https://github.com/microsoft/cascadia-code - which I think deserves a mention.

The font is Cascadia-Code.

I like it a lot! Definitely in the camp of “comic sans is over-hated for poor reasons, and might even have legibility benefits for dyslexia”, and I considered a few comic sans inspired monospaced fonts before settling on Source Code Pro. The leaders were Fantasque (https://github.com/belluzj/fantasque-sans/) and Comic Code (https://tosche.net/fonts/comic-code). (Comic Code’s creator actually links to the font you linked, Comic Mono, as an example of a free font with the same spirit!)

Ultimately I found that anything descended from or inspired by comic sans ended up a little too busy for my eyes.

If paying for a font isn't your thing but you're curious this is a free version I used to use of a similar idea. https://github.com/belluzj/fantasque-sans

For Emacs I use Fantasque Sans Mono, which has a slashed zero and some other good features (e.g. clear difference between 1 and l).

I thought it would be silly or I would hate it, but the comic sans like nature of Fantasque Sans Mono really surprised me and worked well for coding/IDE use (especially in Python): https://github.com/belluzj/fantasque-sans

I know you didn't ask but I have mild dyslexia and a friend turned me on to the font he uses for coding called Fantasque Sans. I found it to be pleasantly readable like Comic Sans without being as stylistically offensive.

Fantasque Sans (https://github.com/belluzj/fantasque-sans) - I love it and use it for years in all editors! For terminal I use a patched variant of Ubuntu Mono.
