    GitHub[^]:

    An innovative superfamily of fonts for code

    Because we apparently need a new font each week for the new programming language each week

        Those 4 lines of "code" made me queasy when I used the mouse wheel. They were shifting right and left.

        I’ve given up trying to be calm. However, I am open to feeling slightly less agitated. I’m begging you for the benefit of everyone, don’t be STUPID.

          You can click on them as well. I agree that just looks weird.

          What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question? The metaphorical solid rear-end expulsions have impacted the metaphorical motorized bladed rotating air movement mechanism. Do questions with multiple question marks annoy you???

            At first, I thought this read; Moanaspace. Now, there's an idea!

              This one for C# core 9? Does I need VS2024 to use it? Monospace did not require improvement. 80 columns, 42 rows, that is your screen. The only improvement is a green screen.

                You almost had me there, but “everyone” knows that an Amber monitor is better than the green ones. ;P

                  I turn sceptical when I see something pretending to be 'everything for everyone', and yet under a single name. Sans and serif are different worlds that will never merge! And if you call it sans, then make it sans, throughout! If you present three different variants, make sure that there is a real difference when you present them to the public. "Monospaced fonts are generally incompatible with one another. Each one uses different metrics, making it impossible to mix different fonts" - that sounds like a suicide statement.

                    In Venice, Italy, and surroundings, "mona" is a dialect word commonly used for "vag*na". Hence "Monaspace" sounds a nice place for bored guys. :-D Aside that, warm welcome for another useful font!

                      Technically, green is better. Also less hurtful on the eyes. Amber burns the old tubes more easily. There once was reasoning, instead of marketing. That is why one machine preferred a blue background with white text for its CLI. That's a Command Line Interface, describing exactly what it was, instead of using a copyrighted name to obscure it. Of course, VHS won, not Betamax. Marketing :)
