Cascadia Code Patched

This is a fork of the official Cascadia Code font. It replaces the greater-than less-than ligature (<>) with the not equal (≠) ligature.

The fonts are available for download from /build/ttf/.

About Cascadia Code

Cascadia is a fun new coding font that comes bundled with Windows Terminal, and is now the default font in Visual Studio as well.

Font Variants

• Cascadia Code: standard version of Cascadia
• Cascadia Mono: a version of Cascadia that doesn't have ligatures
• Cascadia (Code|Mono) PL: a version of Cascadia that has embedded Powerline symbols
• Cascadia (Code|Mono) NF: a version of Cascadia that has Nerd Font symbols

For the italic, there is a standard italic and a cursive variant accessible via ss01 (see below).

Font features

Note: <> is replaced with ≠ in this patched version.

Enabling stylistic sets will vary between applications. For example, in VS Code, you can enable stylistic sets (and other OpenType features) via settings.json:

"editor.fontLigatures": "'ss01', 'ss02', 'ss03', 'ss19', 'ss20'"

To enable the Cursive form of the italic, here's the code you should use:

"editor.fontLigatures": "'calt', 'ss01'",

If you're using an environment that does not support the ss01 OT feature, one option to consider is opentype-feature-freezer.

Character Sets

Installation

Note: If you have previously installed a version of Cascadia Code, please uninstall the previous version prior to installing a new version. Not doing so can result in improper rendering.

The patched fonts can be downloaded from: /build/ttf/.
