Very nice.

`Only two minimal ligatures are exposed with "->" and "=>".`

I like that, I usually have ligatures turned off, because I don't like all of them, especially the ones for == or ===. (Otoh I do like != ligatures...) but I do like the arrows.

This is probably were somebody tells me how easy it is to configure singular ligatures on a font and I'll facepalm in embarrassment for never finding out.

You can edit a font and remove the ligatures you dislike using fontforge [1].

Y'know, I didn't think anything was gonna pull me away from Iosevka but... here we are. Gonna give this a real go. Helping its case is that it looks a bit like Berkeley Mono.

It's 99% JetBrains Mono from my quick comparison. I can barely see the difference except for $&# and a few others.

LE: Ok, so it's a little more different that JetBrains Mono as this comparison shows https://claude.ai/artifact/HPiALZ7AZ2f5FxSZtcTdNa

"93% different"

Your comparison does show a good amount of differences

I like the shape of the lowercase italic 'w'!

Pdf preview doesn't work on GitHub.

It reminds me of OpenBSD's Spleen fonts

Looks nice. I just fell in love with Pragmasevka, a mix of Pragmata Pro and Iosevka. It's pretty much a free Pragmata Pro

Spacing looks good for monospace, but it's too wide for my taste.

I like that this isn't trying to be aggressively narrow like so many other fonts do. I currently use DejaVu Mono because it feels comfortably spaced.

I don't see myself moving away from Ioskeley Mono

Brilliant project. The face looks good. The code looks good. It’s nice to see it in Python too. I don’t especially love the language but I have a great fondness for seeing life things codified with a standard API in a typed (or at least, type-able) language. Needing to draw an “A” in something without having to pull in font libraries (that is to say passing a compatible draw context to this project’s LowercaseAGlyph.draw) sounds nice.

The overall shape of the glyphs (excluding lowercase 'l', that is, 'ell', not 'eye') is that of Berkeley Mono.[1]

As someone who isn't super into fonts, this font reminds me a lot of Berkeley Mono, which is an incredible terminal font

While this is nice, I'm gonna take the opportunity to plug Commit Mono because it's my favorite monospace font https://commitmono.com/.

Funny, I found this font last week on the programming fonts website before it blew up. Was using IoskeleyMono before, and think this is my endgame for now! Amazing readable font.

If you want something actually more narrow, check out Anka/Coder Narrow.

Definitely going to use it in my tools and for my projects, the flexibility offered in the repo looks so great!
