  5. GitLab 的字型:GitLab Sans 與 GitLab Mono

    前幾天翻資料的時候看到的字型:「GitLab Fonts」,找了一下在 2023 年年出的時候就發表了:「Get to know the new GitLab typefaces」。 其中 GitLab Sans 的部分是改自 Inter: This font is based on Inter (version 4), but with a few adjustments[.] 而 GitLab Mono 則是改自 JetBrains Mono: This font is based on JetBrains Mono, but with a few adjustments. 裡面把 ligature 關掉算是我還蠻喜歡的方向,選用的兩個字型我也還算喜歡,換上去用看看…

    Adobe is infamous for introducing a »Th« #ligature, which i also got in my text.

  9. New #coding #font just dropped! Given I consider myself an aspiring #typography geek, I embarrassingly had not heard of this #ligature-based trick to make a #fixedWidth font still give more space to some glyphs vs. others. Eager to see how that affects legibility. Going to give it a whirl. #monospace #monaspace #github monaspace.githubnext.com
