JuliaMono [1] is a very nice font. I’m also partial to Berkeley Mono [2] and Input Mono [3] for my source code authoring. I always use Iosevka [4] for my terminal font.

What are your favorite coding fonts?

Apparently emoji are from 1988, not 1997 or 1999. Oh and even better, UnifontEX's emoji are the same 16x16 resolution as the original 1988 emoji set. You can get UnifontEX at http://stgiga.github.io/UnifontEX

And yes, this means that my hypothetical UnifontEX video chip would have been mostly period-correct. #observation #fontdesign #fontdev #opensource #linux #unifont #unifontex #codingfont #codingfonts #programmingfont #vscode #opentype #truetype #ttf #demographics #emoji #emojifont #emojiset #1980s #pixel #pixelemoji #pixelfont #pixelmoji #bitmapfont #bitmapfonts #bitmapemojis #bitmapemoji #16x16 #16px #retro
New Earliest Emoji Sets From 1988 & 1990 Uncovered

In 2019 Emojipedia detailed a historic revelation: Docomo’s i-mode emojis from 20 years prior were not the first to exist. Now, in 2024, further digital excavations have led to the recreation of emoji designs that predate both Softbank’s 1997 emoji set and the ❤-enabled Pocket Bell pagers of 1995.

I finally found the perfect solution for the letter m in monospaced fonts. It may take some time to get used to it … #CodingFonts #Coding #Monospace

The latest release of my Sudo coding font adds a Debian package, because why not.

Also a contextual raised colon to make the Python walrus operator := look nicer ;)

I just released my Sudo coding font in version 0.72, with lots of progress on Greek and Cyrillic:
https://github.com/jenskutilek/sudo-font/releases/tag/v0.72
Also includes the proportional Sudo UI family as a variable font for the first time; and lots more box drawing characters, and the full DIN 91379 character set.
I’m using Sudo as my standard font in #VSCode for #Python, #RubyOnRails, basically for everything ;)
