A few days ago, Microsoft released a new monospaced font.
It's perfect for Terminal and Visual Studio Code.
The font is open source and licensed un...

After trying this font on my vscode, I switched back to Fira code, but it's a personal choice.
Personally, I Think Cascadia is more "blocky" and visually made it more difficult to understand the code I'm writing. Do you had any problems like me?
Yeah, I'm finding it a bit "heavy", like everything is bold.
There is different weights AFAIK, you can try a lighter than regular weight. I heard someone mention this recently
Yes. Iosvka (github.com/be5invis/Iosevka) is also a great alternate to Fire Code but not Cascadia.
My one qualm is that Cascadia Code doesn't seem to support powerline characters, whereas Fira Code does.
There's a new version of Cascadia Code called Cascadia Code PL which has the powerline characters
I tried it, switched back also. Initially looked good but then noticed the === had no gaps between each character. Might be just my setup, anyone else get this?
That's the font ligatures in action, I think
You can disable it by adding
"editor.fontLigatures": falseto settings.json file
My favorite screen fonts are all Microsoft ones.
A good Free alternative to Georgia is Caris SIL
A good Free alternative to Verdana is Google's Inconsolata
Jetbrains just came out with "Jetbrains Mono" a week or two ago. It's a pretty cool font that I am changing to. I haven't used Cascadia but I'll check it out too. I love all things jetbrains so I am a little bias :)
for those who who is missing the powershell theme icon/font style, use Cascadia Code PL instead of Cascadia Code in setting...
I'm using the latest version of vscode (1.41.1) and there isn't a Font Ligatures checkbox. Instead there is the link "Edit in settings.json" but then what is the attribute name?
As mentioned by someone above:
"editor.fontLigatures": true
Also if you want Powerline characters, you need to download Cascadia Code PL

Wow! Nice font! Using now! Fira Code is freeze now.
From my point of view I never hesitate to test a new choice. Thank you
Thanks for sharing this. After installation the Cascadia code into VS Code, the whole editor panel is perfect now!
