People actually change fonts in their IDE? I've always used whatever the default is and never even thought about it.
Try Fira Code font
I'm a big fan of Fira Code! I haven't found any others I like more.
Love Fira Code but recently switched to https://typeof.net/Iosevka/ and it’s equally great.
You just made my day. Thank you.
I actually have. I didn't install it in an IDE, though. This font comes with popOS
I always do. I'm a fan of JetBrains Mono.
It is the default font. At least in all the JetBrains IDE
What makes this unique is that they're saying this allows for different fonts in the same piece of code. So you could have comments in one font, your code in another, AI written code in another, etc. Looks like all the fonts are the same size, so everything still aligns nicely.
I'm an Envy Code R fan myself.
some people even change default system fonts used in the deskop environment (menu's, filemanager etc) 😎😁
Damn, I need to get out more.
Actually you have to stay in more to get into this sort of thing.
I was also like that until I discovered ligatures were thing.
I've always preferred IBM's Plex Mono, specifically the Nerd Fonts version.
Oh man fonts for coding are such a huge thing. There are people making their own forks of so they have certain glyphs, or a line through the zero (or vice versa) or little changes to other specific chars.
I can't stand Jetbrains default font. The height of the letters is too large
