- Set font to =Fira Code=
I used to use =Iosevka Extended= before, which was very good, but didn't have many curvatures. It was little jarring on eyes for big round letters (e.g. capital C).
After that I was using =Roboto Mono=. It was better with curves, but bit too crowded. Line and character spacing made it seem to fill in more than it actually did.
Since then, I tried out =Fira Code= fonts and been liking so far. They are not too spread out like Source Code Pro, not boxy or vertical like Iosevka and not too crowded like Roboto Mono. They almost appear as normal text, and have just a touch of typewriter-esque personality.
Nerd font variant isn't exactly needed, but NixOS supports it without much fuss, so I just went with it.
Either way, its an experiment. (Started after coming across [[https://teddit.net/r/OrgRoam/comments/pz86n1/orgroamtimestamps_keep_track_of_creation_and/hf3ad8d/#c][this]] thread.)
My current favorite monospace font is =JetBrains Mono=. It is bit taller than FiraCode and doesn't have ligatures by default (I think), but it also doesn't have the extra edges of FiraCode and looks slightly cleaner. Its Regular variant is a tad bit thicker than FiraCode, so combined with height it is bit non-appealing for long-form text like this document, but it is an excellent candidate for pure code. So, I made it my default terminal font :)

These themes are made with extreme attention to detail, have been thoroughly tested and been integrated into Emacs since 28.0 (I'm still on 27.2 as of this writing) These themes are made with extreme attention to detail, have been thoroughly tested and been integrated into Emacs since 28.0 (I'm still on 27.2 as of this writing)
Most significant criterion of these themes is accessibility. Every visible element must be at minimum 7:1 luminance ratio, according to the standard. There are some options for red-green color blindness, but thankfully I don't suffer from it. Most significant criterion of these themes is accessibility.
