Wow, I didn't really expect to see my project there this morning! I'm normally a simple lurker, but I wanted to say thanks for the kind words about the project.
I know some people might want to modify or tweak the project to their liking. The project is meant to provide a Python sandbox more than just font files, so feel free to fork it or submit a PR if you feel like some glyphs need tweaking! You don't need any external tools to draw/visualize the glyphs.

The font looks great and has its own character, kudos!
However, it doesn't support all the characters I need, so I can't use it as a terminal font. However, I starred your repo, and will watch it.
Thanks again for the effort, it looks really nice.

If you're talking about powerline/nerd symbols, have you tried patching it yourself? I did and it worked.
bayindirh 4 hours ago [-]
Unfortunately no, ligatures/nerd fonts/powerline is not in my concerns list. It doesn't support all the characters all my alphabet. This is the showstopper.
Normally, I use Berkeley, but I have a couple of terminal profiles with different fonts which I use if I open 5+ terminals sometimes, to group things. I wondered whether I can use this one of the alternate fonts when things get complicated and crowded.

Google Fonts is no longer best practice due to worse performance and privacy (and the questionable ethics of giving stuff to Google for free) compared to self-hosted fonts. So, OP should take this suggestion with a grain of salt.

Hey, how did you designed the typeface using Python? Asking ad a designer who thought Python is a programming language…
tywr 5 hours ago [-]
When you design a glyph inside any vector graphics software, you are essentially asking a library to execute some commands (eg. place a point there, then place the bézier curve handles there and go to next point etc.). Instead of relying on a software with a UI, I directly called the underlying commands from python for every glyph.
agilek 3 hours ago [-]
Thanks - got this part but did you actually design all letters one by one, or did you just feed it with all the fonts you mentioned as inspiration and YOLO? Can’t imagine how to give feedback to the curves when they live in the code and are not visualised…

If the designed used an LLM, it’s easy to say “no, make the dot on the i slightly elliptical, and round the bottom left corner of the B a tiny bit more”, etc.

eddyg 5 hours ago [-]
You should look at Pragmata Pro⁽¹⁾.
Hand-hinted by Fabrizio:
”More than 9000 characters optimized from 9pt to 48pt to guarantee the best possible readability.”
It is the ultimate “programmer’s font” and well worth the money for something you stare at every day and the next best thing to a bitmap font in today’s “Retina resolution” world.
I don’t prefer bitmap fonts (anymore) because I find subpixel antialiasing beneficial. But I’m with you regarding low-DPI monitors, and the lack of pixel-grid hinting in modern fonts is a pity.
It’s similar to vector icons versus hand-drawn bitmap color icons.

As I got higher DPI monitors, I found it less hassle to use outline fonts, but I still find them preferable - given the option.

It's not just a little different. it's VERY different. it's much more boxy, and letters are closer in height, especially noticeable in uppercase next to lowercase. I would say it's less readable than Jetbrains Mono.
Lower case 'l' even extends above upper case 'G'. it missed with my brain xD
Overall it's really pretty but not a daily driver.

It is like saying Arial is the same as Verdana. These fonts are at a glance similar but different.
tasuki 7 hours ago [-]
Eg the `m` is much different: it has the wonderful short middle descender, taken from Ubuntu Mono.
Your comparison says the `m` is 28% different. It's completely different. I don't know what the 28% is supposed to represent (yes, the difference in the area taken, but that's meaningless).
rootlocus 6 hours ago [-]
It's not completely different. Look at other fonts (e.g. comic sans) to see what "completely" means. Norwand is a little wider and the middle line is shorter. 28% seems a fairly accurate measurement. It's almost one third different for just the middle descender.
tasuki 5 hours ago [-]
The shorter middle line gives it a completely different character. Comparing how many pixels are different is meaningless.
I will not voluntarily look at Comic Sans, but thank you for the recommendation!

jan_m_savage 8 hours ago [-]
It's a bit like the paid font Berkeley Mono which I've been using for a while now. But I think Nordwand feels softer and nicer, it embodies a message in the font (thus the fluency effect is more potent).
The message may be subjective but it strikes me as: "I, the font, contain important data [due to the sharp curvatures and uniform size of letter elements]. Not sure if others think about fonts in this way.
Berkeley Mono's message to me feels like "I'm just doing my job, don't mind me, focus on your thing".
bayindirh 7 hours ago [-]
> Berkeley Mono's message to me feels like "I'm just doing my job, don't mind me, focus on your thing".
It's a font inspired by older terminals and "no nonsense" hardware of that era. I put its design philosophy as "it's so good that it's invisible". Using it for years now, and it feels natural and neutral.
With Gruvbox dark, it really feels like I'm using an old terminal. Like how I like it.

A lot of things were better in that era. Keyboards for instance. All keyboards were nice, and some companies are charging a lot of money just to give us back what we once had!

That's true. However, I got some nice keyboard(s) for myself, and I don't look back much now. Not all are mechanical, but most are.

I have been going back and forth between Luxi Mono (serif monospace fonts are rare but look great on high-resolution monitors) and Hack (like Helvetica, it has virtually no personality and thus fits well everywhere). Everything else I've seen has looked... weird or off somehow. But this is one of the first alternatives I'm entertaining the idea of trying.
My main concern is that the tall glyphs for less than < and greater than > will disambiguate badly with actual Unicode left 〈 and right angle brackets 〉.
Edit: I also realised just now the ASCII hyphen-minus - is quite long with this typeface, which makes it ambiguous with the longer dashes. (It looks freakin' great in pure ASCII environments, though!)
chirayuk 6 hours ago [-]
The hyphen is as wide as the em dash (it's one pixel higher than the em-dash—the only visible difference to my eyes). And the $ symbol doesn't have a line that goes through all the way through. It doesn't work for me for daily use, but looks quite clean and nice overall.

I will never understand people who expect fonts for free. They don't grow on trees. Font development is extremely involved, and I am happy to die on this particular elitist hill: the overwhelming majority of free fonts are absolutely rubbish, including the Liberation family, which is available by default on most Linux distros.
Any font that is free and is still reasonably good is almost certainly designed by a type foundry for a megacorp's branding and user interface (so, things like SF Pro, Segoe UI, Open/Noto Sans, Roboto, JetBrains Mono, IBM Plex, Source Sans, Fira Sans, Inter, etc), or are historic properties of the type foundries themselves, like Garamond, Helvetica, Didot, Minion, etc.
ASCII isn't the only set of characters. Just the LGK (Latin, Greek, Cyrillic) set of glyphs alone including combining marks, diacritics, contextual alternates and ligatures alone amount to several thousand glyphs, each of which has to be individually tuned for different weights, hinted for different display resolutions, hinted for RGB/BGR subpixel rendering, and more.

Turns out it has smart kerning, ie. character positions are subtly adjusted to compensate for different character widths. For example, i is narrow and m is wide. That causes words like "commit" to look bad in standard monospace fonts. The m's in the middle are very densely spaced and there are wide gaps around the i.
I'll be testing Commit Mono in my editors. Maybe it will even make me switch SilverBullet back to a monospace config.
