I am a big fan of fonts that support ligatures. I highly recommend the following fonts:
Note: Ensure you enable font ligatures by adding
"editor.fontLigatures": true,
to yoursettings.json
file.
I also highly recommended two particular extensions to help augment this theme even further:
Download these extensions and add the following settings to your settings.json
file.
