Default Best Monospace Font

Now you can do a best font tournament to find out what your favorite coding font is.

I ended up with the JetBrains one but that might be because I already use it in their products.

JetBrains was nice for a more modern font, but I believe it got eliminated against IBM Plex Mono.

My last match-up was IBM Plex Mono vs. PT Mono. I chose PT Mono, it just had slightly better clarity to my eyes.

Noto Sans Mono, though I struggle to see a difference between that and JetBrains

Yeah IBM Plex Mono made it into my final few but ended up being a little too Courier for me.

Hm comparing Noto Sans Mono directly with JetBrains I might have to give it a try.

This thread mostly seems like an attempt to fish out the true nerds.

If I had a daughter, I'd teach her how to code.

I tried teaching the cat, but it's not really his thing.

Cat code looks suspiciously like a cat lying on the keyboard smushing all the keys.

Which, coincidentally enough, looks a lot like perl code. Or should I say, purrrl.

sorry

I don't code but I really like Share Tech Mono, JetBrains Mono, and Nova Mono from a design aspect.

One time, I played a joke on my cat by leaving some code next to him wasn't looking. He turned around, quickly spotted it, and jumped about six feet in the air.

He mistook it for Python, but it was actually just Gherkin.
