Google Sans Code is a new fixed-width font crafted for coders by Google and Universal Thirst. It blends geometric precision with Renaissance-inspired italics for high readability at small sizes.
Always eager to try a new programming font — including those from brands!
The newest font to be added to the list is Google Sans Code, which was designed to make reading code easier. Most importantly, Google Sans Code works well at small sizes with its fixed and fine-tuned optical size design. It also has a variable-weight axis for the things that make source code different, like unusual character combinations, the use of color, and the importance of vertical relationships between operator symbols. The design minimizes clutter, but there’s still a playful, Googley feel across the Code glyphs—particularly in the italics (and check out those brackets!).
@fmerian Jetbrains mono is older I believe, I replaced it with Cascadia in my code editor. No longer have the urges to try new fonts and theme every week.

An awesome new font for coders—super excited to try this out!
Thanks for hunting this one!
The readability is excellent, curious to see if this font sets a new standard for coding. Worth a try!
Microsoft Cascadia has a new competitor.
So does @JetBrains Mono

Why doesn't it support hyphens?
