Tools that keep me productive
I was a big fan of the Dank Mono for the longest time, but GitHub released a bunch of monospaced fonts this year and I've been loving Monaspace Krypton.

Monaspace: An innovative superfamily of fonts for code
I'd love to see a demo of how it might look used in practise, with multiple fonts used to display semantic meaning on a page of code. I see on the website they have a demo where you can switch between them (https://monaspace.githubnext.com/#learn-more) but it's not easy to imagine how it would look with them mixed on the same page

Turning on font "smart kerning" or "texture healing" in Emacs
The Commit Mono font has a feature that it calls "smart kerning". Monaspace has a similar feature that it calls "texture healing." Characters are moved around slightly, or swapped out for a slightly larger or smaller character to even out the spacing, for example, when a wide character like an 'm' is followed by a narrow character like an 'l'.

Intel One Mono
I've been using Commit Mono for the past 6 months or so and love the clarity at small sizes (for my eyes, at least). Before that, I mainly used Source Code Pro and Comic Mono. My long term friend is Bitstream Vera Sans Mono.

Turning on font "smart kerning" or "texture healing" in Emacs
I found the Commit Mono kerning feature in its repo here. It classifies common ascii characters into "narrow", "normal", "larger", and "widest" sizes, and repositions them based on what they appear next too.

Commit Mono font does something similar and calls it “Smart kerning”. Visit https://commitmono.com/ and click on the “04 Intelligent” for details.
In practice this is unusable. Because the width of the letters now depends on the succeeding character, the text jumps as you write it. Super annoying.
Cool for reading. Awful for writing.
