This is of course subjective, but I still find JetBrains Mono to be much more pleasant to read (when it comes to code) than any other mono font out there.

- speedgoose 1y agoYes, same for me. I tried many fonts over the years and I settled on Comic Code and JetBrains Mono. I use one for code editors and the other for CLIs.
- tommica 1y agoI use comic code in my editors and in cli - it's just fun and very readable
- RyanHamilton 1y agoI also found this and actually made it the default for an application I author with a few thousand users. Well it turned out jetbrains mono didn't support chinese characters so I broke my app for a proportion of my user base. I had to revert it. Also it can add seconds to load time. Just a warning as I think a few people on hn will make tools for others. I still set it as my own font.
- microflash 1y agoYou can always subset different fonts for different languages. This does two things: reduces the file size and allows some agents, such as your browser, load specific font depending on unicode range. I wrote a post about subsetting, in context of my personal site, here: https://www.naiyerasif.com/post/2024/06/27/how-i-subset-fonts-for-my-site/ https://www.naiyerasif.com/post/2024/06/27/how-i-subset-font...
