MonoLisa – font follows function #dyslexia #typedesign
monolisafont@monolisafontJul 15
One of MonoLisa’s greatest assets is its legibility: Especially for people with visual impairment, it is key to have highly distinguishable letters. You can see some examples on our website 👇 #codingfont #typedesign #monolisafont

‘MonoLisa Text’ is great for prose and presentations, and it works well even in smaller sizes, be it on screen or in print. Plus: We added a ‘grade’ axis to the existing weight axis, so that you can fine-tune the stroke thickness without breaking the layout. #codingfont

MonoLisa v3: A perfect pairing for the AI era AI assistants produce both code and prose. MonoLisa Text renders long-form explanations with optimal readability, while MonoLisa Code keeps your code crystal clear. A perfect typographic ecosystem. #typedesign #codingfont #ai

#swdev is more than just choosing a typeface that's good for your eyes. For this reason we wrote a short series about the sources of friction in the craft. The brief posts give you new perspectives on what's slowing you down. monolisa.dev/posts/friction_…

If you ever wanted a perfect match for MonoLisa, you have found it now 👇
monolisafont@monolisafontJul 2
What makes MonoLisa v3 so exceptional is the introduction of MonoLisa Text. This sans-serif font family is the perfect companion for MonoLisa Code – font pairing was never easier. Together, they build the perfect typographic ecosystem for your workflow. #codingfont #fontpairing

We figured it all out 🙃

We figured it out for you (pun intended 🙃)! On the left you see the various kinds of figures MonoLisa Code offers, on the right you see MonoLisa Text’s counterparts. Use its tabular figures if you want the numbers monospaced rather than proportional. #codingfont #monolisafont

MonoLisa Code is a typeface optimized for code editors. Razor-sharp letterforms, an increased character width and specially designed ligatures make it exceptional for programming. #codingfont #typedesign

A more detailed look at the improvements in MonoLisa Code (versus version 2). 🔬
monolisafont@monolisafontJun 23
MonoLisa Code: Some significant adjustments to legibility compared to version 2 have been made. A couple of letters have been widened in the light master. This means weights from Hairline to Light will render slightly wider (Upright and Italic).
