Turning on font "smart kerning" or "texture healing" in Emacs
Apparently "smart kerning" uses the ligatures mechanism. I use Mickey Peterson's ligature.el package for ligatures support. To get the smart kerning to work I added more ligatures by hand using this package. For example the website shows the effect when you type "Moi": the "o" will shift a bit away from the "M" when you type the "i". To get that to work I added a "Moi" ligature:

Replacing => with unicode right arrow
It sounds like you might want ligatures? I use ligature.el but it only works on emacs version 28+.

Unable to display ligatures in Emacs
I'm using use-package as my package manager and the package ligature for the ligatures.

Newbie here, how do I add ligatures to Emacs?
https://github.com/mickeynp/ligature.el will do it, but there are specific emacs version requirements and you have to enumerate all of the possible ligatures in your config. They have some examples of configuration for various popular programming ligature fonts.

What is then name of this theme?
Version 28 finally includes a necessary patch that has freed up ligatures. ligature.el seems to be the winning implementation.

> Is that the only way, or is there a way to disable ligatures but keep the rest of the font?
It's actually not that easy to use them with for example Emacs where you have to list every combination that you want to 'translate' to a ligature:

Confusion over faces vs overlays
ligatures are when multiple characters appear to combine into a single character ej, => transforms to arrow. emacs version and font used must support this to use it. GitHub - mickeynp/ligature.el: Display typographical ligatures in Emacs

Share your prettify-symbols-alist!
I don't really use any sort of symbol mode very often but when I do I much prefer using ligature.el with Fira Code.

FontForge
Fontforge is the tool I used to create and what I use to maintain my 3270 font, https://github.com/rbanffy/3270font.
It has that 1990's Unix workstation vibes, but, if I didn't like vintage tech, I wouldn't make a 3270 terminal font.

Ligatures in programming fonts: hell no
Is there a way to add programming ligatures to an existing font, similar to how Nerd Font patches existing fonts to add useful terminal glyphs like the Powerline symbols¹? I would love to have a ligatured version of that font https://github.com/rbanffy/3270font
1) the last sentence of the article implies that the author of the article abhor them as much as programming ligatures. I don't understand why but preference in taste, color, esthetic are not objective, nor absolute, so I am not the one to judge him.

https://github.com/rbanffy/3270font
Being distributed with Debian and downstreams, 11 years old, with 1.5K stars and 60+ forks is, by far, my most popular open source thing. My biggest shame is that it's not software, but a font that mimics the look of IBM's 3278-2 terminals.
And, of course, it's the font I use for terminals on all my machines.

MonoLisa – A Font Designed for Developers
Sorry, but no IDE comes with a proper 3278-like font. Not even IBM's Developer for z/OS comes with one (they commissioned that other font called Plex... who would take seriously a font named after a media player?).
Luckily, everyone can get one at https://github.com/rbanffy/3270font.
