  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS

  • fantasque-sans

    A font family with a great monospaced variant for programmers.

  • Fantasque Sans Mono is similar in spirit and works great for coding too IMHO: https://github.com/belluzj/fantasque-sans/ Don't knock it until you try it, it really looks nice for clean languages without a lot of symbols, operators or noise.

  • comic-mono-font

    A legible monospace font... the very typeface you’ve been trained to recognize since childhood

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • comic-shanns

    a classy font

  • Mainly more referring to https://github.com/shannpersand/comic-shanns, but the capital forms seem to very quickly leave a blocky feel, e.g. IT visually combining, NE visually combining. I do wonder if it would be possible to systematically adjust the kerning, la using openCV or similar to detect such things.

  • Hack

    A typeface designed for source code

  • Actually looks quite nice, but when I try it for coding I find it a bit too dense, compared to Hack [0] which gets it just about right for me.
