fonts VS uiGradients

Look at Powerline Fonts, Nerd Fonts or Font Awesome.

I'm now trying to make the Powerline fonts work on Windows. I've tried the two options I get when I right click in a font file ("Install" and "Install for all users") and even restarted the computer, but the new fonts appear everywhere (Windows control panel, LibreOffice Writer, PhpStorm...) except in the WSL console. They're simply missing in the "Font" list. I want "Hack", but I've also tried a few different fonts and none are offered as choice.

Could also be a patched font. Some fonts use the private use area of unicode to draw glyphs for use in interface. Check out for example these patched fonts for Powerline on GitHub. Powerline is a status line plugin for vim and it uses text to draw the interface. If you download one, drop it on a font visualizer e.g. fontdrop.info you'll see a range of specific glyphs inside the private use area (E000–F8FF). There's even an Ubuntu logo at E0FF.

In order to use some of the best themes, you'll need to first install Powerline fonts on your system. I prefer to run the install script directly from their official repository like so:

The theme in the photo above is called agnoster and for that theme, you need the Powerline fonts. Hint: a lot of the themes require these fonts.

To view the terminal properly from another machine, such as a Windows PC, Apple Mac or Linux machine you will need to install the Powerline fonts (Click here for a link to the powerline fonts).

But for this particular theme we need a particular font, the Ubuntu Mono. Of course you can download this font as a standard human or again use your terminal by directly clonning the project:

so I did git clone https://github.com/powerline/fonts.git --depth=1 cd fonts ./install.sh cd .. rm -rf fonts

Side tip, use a gradient generator site like UIGradients to find a tone/mood to start with

Create Gradients - https://uigradients.com

Choose a cool background (eg. animated , gradiant, etc)

Gradientes

A couple sites I definitely recommend for digital and web focused design are dribbble and behance. Also check out colourlovers for some trendy color palletes, uiGradients for CSS gradients, there are many many more also for gradients, etc. There are tons of free mockup kits available. You can also look on pinterest etc or just googling around or using hashtags on social sites. Basically I just recommend looking for inspiration in what you are most attracted to artistically.
