I'm curious what people think of the "Mix & Match" examples.
Radon (the handwriting one) seems to complement the other fonts well because it's basically an italic. But all the others are so similar, with their identical metrics and whatnot, that the "authoritative docstrings" and "Copilot voice" examples are really hard to distinguish.
- whalesalad 3y agotbh this immediately popped into my mind before scrolling down the page - having a handwritten comment is neat and adds another differentiation to reduce strain when browsing code. some will hate it, but personally I want to try it.
- graypegg 3y agoI've loved Victor Mono [0] Italic for this reason for years! I find prose much easier to read with some slight joined-up lettering, which I totally concede is a 100% personal. Worth a look as well though! [0] https://rubjo.github.io/victor-mono/ https://rubjo.github.io/victor-mono/
- ly 3y agoThe mix and match is what convinced me to give this font a try. I’ve been using Operator Mono for years now specifically because of it’s true italics. I’ve wanted to switch to an open alternative to Operator Mono for a long time now, and I think because of the mix and match, this finally is the one.
- notatoad 3y agoyeah, i flipped through the samples without even realizing it was changing anything in the code sample box until i got to the radon variant. those other variants are not nearly different enough to really convey information.
- wjdp 3y agoI really like this idea. Is this supported anywhere yet or just something for future?
- itsikap 3y agoHow do you configure different fonts? This was the first thing I wanted to try, but can't figure it out. Am I missing anything obvious?
- kkirsche 3y agoI tried to use custom css in vscode but couldn’t figure out how to get it to work.
