Accessible fonts

The Atkinson font is a font designed for low vision readers—not only for the web.

Fonts for your terminal and text editor

A new monospace font family has been released by Github. Monaspace is not just one font, but a whole family, so you can use different monospace fonts for different parts of your code, e.g. comments and the main code. Also it features a cool feature called “texture healing”. That is the widening of characters in case the neighbouring character is small, like an m next to an i will widen the m and make the i smaller though staying in its overall bounding boxes. More on that also on their website.
