What is the most beautiful font for an IDE/Text editor?

hack

iosevka beats the shit out of all of those

Fantasque Sans Mono, it even has ligatures (in an alpha release)

Fantasque Sans Mono apparently looks like comic sans to some people

github.com/belluzj/fantasque-sans

Currently using Monoid.

I really want to like Iosevka because all the customization it allows you to have, but it's too squiggly, I find it hard to read. I wish there was a font like Fira Code that had the same customization as Iosevka.

What is this gorgeous font?

Liberation Mono

best of anti-aliased fonts in low sizes/DPI

monaco

I enjoy source code pro
Terminus for smaller displays

IBM Plex Mono

All fonts look the same to me so I don't really care.

>it even has ligatures
Is this really something people are looking for?

Unfortunately, yes.

Using impact bold unironically makes me feel like chad thunder cock at work.

most any proportional font

But why?

that's really legible, almost like a dyslexia-friendly font

What is the modern alternative that one should be using, according to you?

It does! it's called Pointfree:
dafont.com/pointfree.font

Wow that's surprisingly legible. Almost makes me mad how much comic-sans is hated because of a meme.

you forgot Hack

whatever programming language you're using, if it has a way to iterate collections without requiring you to:
1. declare variables to be used in order to iterate the collection
2. declare a condition with which to continue iterating the collection
then use it.
Or put conversely:
we often need to iterate collections entirely, often order-independent. In such situations, who wants to spend time declaring an index, loop condition and post-loop-body step? You should be using a tool that iterates the entire collection, giving you all necessary information during each iteration

For example, in ruby:
[12] pry(main)> g
=> [1, 2, 3, 3]
[13] pry(main)> g.inject([]) do |a, element| a [1, 2, 3, 3]
[14] pry(main)>

of course, if we're using ruby, there are other iteration tricks:
[15] pry(main)> g.inject :+
=> 9
[16] pry(main)>

not one where italic is the default

out of the box sublime is beautiful

I've heard that people with dyslexia find comic sans more readable than most fonts. It is ugly, though.

Yeah, that is like way more better. Thank you for enlightening me. It really makes sense. Your example is so much better than a loop. I love you now. It also does not require the language to do the same that you did before behind the curtain. This is so great. I think I am going to hug a trans person.

A multidimensional array of pixels isn't and shouldn't be a collection.
And frankly I very much prefer iterating imperatively in the case I might only need to scan part of an image instead of the whole thing.

tewi font best font

I came across almost all those "modern cool" dev fonts. I liked them for the first few days but then when I really started working with the code I always found something. So I switched to another font.

I also liked the ligatures, but after 5 minutes .... no thank you. That shit for presentations not IDE.

Once I switchded back to Vim I realized what "working with text" really means. I also realized that I need a clear font. I need numbers and letters as much natural as they can look like. So no ligatures, no italic and no other shit. Then I've discovered pixel fonts.

Pixel fonts are usually distributed in 12px but I found this font in 13px without being deformed.

All you need is clear font (no ligatures, no antialiasing, no hinting). Also small fonts will help you to see much more code at once so you will scroll and switch context less.

I like the default X font family called "fixed". It's a non-hinting set of fonts in various styles, and is easily readable in a small space, giiving better readability in higher density. For low-resolution (large) screens I like 5x7 (pixels, the actual name of the font), and for higher-density I like 7x13 and for larger whichever one starts with 9.

Whoops, meant sizes, not styles. They are in one style. Letters.

I've only used Dejavu mono and terminus and if I try any other font it looks odd. It's even hard to swap between those two.

try Terminus

dyslexia is often misdiagnosed light downs syndrome, that might explain the popularity of comic sans.

font is to tall and no 13px size

not using proper os instead of that meme

you're right user, why would i be using this when i could use macos instead? gosh how stupid of me

or you could use proper os

such as?

nice cryptic identifiers loser

the file is obfuscated code i'm in the process of deobfuscating

that's mathematics for you.

Old BIOS fonts are nice and clear.

There's a large pack of them here but half of them are of unusable dimensions:

Bitmap fonts are for gentlemen of distinction and wit.

I like pragmata pro but what I'm really struggling with is deciding how to render it.

I bet your favorite font is based off it.

Depends on the DPI, sometimes I go down a single point in font size because it gets blurry, and I can't stand blurry fonts.

It's an imageboard lads, this is the future.

you're line height is too small

Why would I want to waste screen real estate with empty space between lines of code?

No it's not. It's exactly 1.618 time the height of my font, which is the golden ratio, which is aesthetic as fuck.

agreed
