Cascadia Code with ligatures and nerd fonts.

Over 10 years I've used Inconsolata, moved to FiraCode, and then switched to Cascadia which is the best thing Microsoft has ever made.

It’s a font that supports ligatures. I use cascadia: https://github.com/microsoft/cascadia-code

Cascadia Mono is what you want. Or you can turn off ligatures for Cascadia Code in your terminal/IDE or set them to off in the text style (depending on whether you’re using it for coding or typesetting).

Firstly, if you don't have a Nerd Font, you can install Cascadia Code.

Cascadia Mono/Code, depending if I feel like having ligatures:

It has the option to enable cursive italics, which is disabled by default. Been using it for over a year. No complaints.

I prefer Cascadia Code

The theme relies on the Cascadia Code font. In my case, I just extracted the CascadiaCode.ttf file in my Download directory, I’m not sure if it will work out of the box for people trying to use the theme.

Comic Mono.

I started using it as a bit of a joke but I actually really liked it - visually distinct, easy to read and works well at small and larger sizes.

For the last several weeks I've been using Comic Mono in my terminal. It's a fixed width typeface based on the font that we've all been trained to despise and sneer at for almost 30 years, Comic Sans.

Comic Mono and Arial.

Comic Mono – Write code in the font we’ve all come to love and loathe.
