MonoLisa – A Font Designed for Developers

• victor-mono

  63 3,178 6.1 Vue

  A free programming font with cursive italics and ligatures. Donations welcome ❤️

Unfortunately not available to compare on https://www.programmingfonts.org/

While I'm here: Victor Mono has been my programming font of choice for a while now: https://rubjo.github.io/victor-mono/

Oh, look at that, the Victor Mono homepage has a font comparison slider that allows you to compare it to MonoLisa! MonoLisa advertises that it's wider than other monospace fonts, and you can really see that in the comparison. One of the things I appreciate about Victor Mono is that it is narrower than many other monospace fonts (while still being very readable), allowing you to fit more code side-by-side.

• fantasque-sans

  A font family with a great monospaced variant for programmers.

I Completely agree! It is my daily driver font. Use it everywhere, great for shells too. And it's free

• monego

  2 380 2.5

  The beloved Monaco monospaced font, recreated with a bold and italic variant. Finally.

Thanks for the victor mono recommendation. It looks really good! I was blown away by how narrow it was compared to other forms in the comparison tool.

Side note: it's a bummer that you never see Monaco on these comparison tools. Monaco has been my monospace font of choice for many years now despite never owning a Macbook: https://github.com/cseelus/monego

• 3270font

  12 1,681 0.0 Python

  A 3270 font in a modern format

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.

Note: shameless plug ;-)

• comic-mono-font

  97 2,349 0.0 Ruby

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

I like Comic Mono. It feels informal, produces no fatigue, and looks nice.

• FiraCode

• cascadia-code

  This is a fun, new monospaced font that includes programming ligatures and is designed to enhance the modern look and feel of the Windows Terminal.

  

Some fonts also just have different variants with and without ligatures, for example Cascadia Code/Mono: https://github.com/microsoft/cascadia-code

Your font is cool, ignore the downvotes. It reminds me a bit of the default console font on OpenBSD, Spleen [1].

• ligature.el

  13 358 4.8 Emacs Lisp

  Display typographical ligatures in Emacs

> 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:
