Proposal

Extend the monospaced font-stack to cater to contributors who have installed one of the following modern typefaces designed for source code, some of which have specific programming ligatures.

This is a nice addition for professionals and has no effect on regular users.

  • 'Fira Code' - Webfont, monospaced font with programming ligatures.
  • 'Hack' - Webfont, a typeface designed for source code - large x-height + wide aperture + low contrast + custom zero.
  • 'Source Code Pro' - Webfont from Adobe, "has been designed to work well in coding environments".
  • 'Inconsolata' - Favored for its legibility with small font-size.
