Fonts

I know you love using lots of different fonts. But start from small.

• TL; DR
  • PlemolJP Console NF
    • Pros
      • It covers both Japanese and Nerd fonts in one font.
      • 2:1 width for English and Japanese.
      • I like slashed zero style, and IBM plex series can enable it by using "editor.fontLigatures": "'zero'.
      • The based IBM Plex Mono and JP have gentle typeface for me.
    • Cons
      • It will not fit for web fonts. Especially Google Fonts does not distribute it.
• How to find?
  • https://www.programmingfonts.org/
• Favorite
  1. Inconsolata
  2. M PLUS 1 Code
  3. IBM Plex Mono
  4. IBM Plex JP
• Common
  1. 源ノ角ゴシック Code JP # Most definitions, so useful for fallback
• Terminal
  1. PlemolJP Console NFJ (It includes Japanese and https://www.nerdfonts.com/, it is useful because of Windows Terminal can not set multiple fonts)

In some fonts, "editor.fontLigatures": "'zero'" toggles the slashed zero or not. In IBM Plex family, it makes slashed zero. Inconsolata makes non slashed zero.
