Monospace
Under Construction…
Monospace fonts are quintessential to programming and life in the terminal, where their fixed width allows text to be displayed and aligned correctly.
Some are typewriter style fonts, great for formatting screenplays and the like.
Source Code Pro
Nerd Font variant: SauceCodePro

0123456789 ?! ‘’ “” () [] {} / &@%*#$£¥
== != /= === ==> *** <| |> <|> <<< >>> <> +++ <- -> <= >= => >> << >>= =<< .. ... :: -< >- -<< >>- ++
Source Code Pro is one of widest I’ve found among monospace fonts, which gives it a nice round look.
Hasklig
Nerd Font variant: Hasklug
License: OFL
== != /= === ==> *** <| |> <|> <<< >>> <> +++ <- -> <= >= => >> << >>= =<< .. ... :: -< >- -<< >>- ++
Hasklig is Source Code Pro with programming ligatures. It was specifically geared toward Haskell, but can be seen with many other languages like JavaScript, Typescript, Rust, Gleam, and OCaml.
Office Code Pro

0123456789 ?! ‘’ “” () [] {} / &@%*#$£¥
A derivative of Source Code Pro, Office Code Pro is slightly taller with a few different glyph styles.
Fira Code
Nerd Font variant: FiraCode
License: OFL
SPHINX OF BLACK QUARTZ, JUDGE MY VOW.

0123456789 ?! ‘’ “” () [] {} / &@%*#$£¥
== != /= === ==> *** <| |> <|> <<< >>> <> +++ <- -> <= >= => >> << >>= =<< .. ... :: -< >- -<< >>- ++
Fira Code is super popular among developers, particularly for its abundance of programming ligatures.
Victor Mono
Nerd Font variant: VictorMono

SPHINX OF BLACK QUARTZ, JUDGE MY VOW.

0123456789 ?! ‘’ “” () [] {} / &@%*#$£¥
== != /= === ==> *** <| |> <|> <<< >>> <> +++ <- -> <= >= => >> << >>= =<< .. ... :: -< >- -<< >>- ++
SPHINX OF BLACK QUARTZ, JUDGE MY VOW.

Victor Mono is distinct for its cursive italics, which can make special keywords really stand out while programming.
It’s a nice alternative to fonts like Operator Mono.

Oh, a screenplay font this time!
Courier Prime was made to improve upon Courier, which was designed in 1955 for IBM and became the standard for screenwriting (a repository of the original Courier’s digital forms can be found here).
Courier Prime is my favorite typewriter style font, and I love its italics. There is also Courier Prime Code, which is Courier Prime Sans but code-optimized.
