  • Agree on the misleading table. To make it worse, OP didn’t include the Mitchell’s article link.

    Table alone does not paint the complete picture (and marking Alacritty has no features is too absurd). Alacritty lacks features but exclamation would be better suited (instead of cross).

    Some of the features Alacritty does not have

    • ligature
    • tabs
    • split
    • layouts
    • terminal graphics protocol (at least Kitty)












  • Monaspace AUR-packaged fonts do not registered as monospace font in ArchLinux.

    Though Konsole can be configured to use the font, Kitty does not recognize it. Manual install in macOS works for Kitty.

    I like Neon and Argon variants of Monaspace.

    My favorite was PragmataPro (not free) but it has different glyphs from Nerd Fonts. Similar ones are Iosevka, Victor, Mplus 1 code. Now new favorite is JetbrainsMono NF.

    SF code, Fira Code are also in the favorite list.

    Lab mono, fragment Mono are nice and planning to try them.

    Generally I like condense (but not too condesed) round fonts.

    Don’t rely too much on chatgpt before you understand the basic concept.

    You should also read the books. E.g. pick axe book(i.e. programming with ruby). You could also find the recommended books in your CS50 course. Also ask your online course buddies and instructors for help.

    If you only have exp in html, css and js, don’t regard yourself as you are already familiar with programming. Learn as a beginner. Go back to the earliest topics you have trouble with. Try to get the concept and work your ways to the situation where you feel overwhelmed.

    Good luck!
