On the other hand, Comic Code comes with manually and lovingly drawn variations. In Comic Code ligatures, the dashes are only semi-connected so that they look connected enough but still countable.Ĭomic Sans comes with artificially made bold that looks terrible, and no italic. The former is largely dependent on experience and taste, but the latter can be addressed in the font. I believe coding ligatures can enhance programming experience especially in languages like Haskell, but there seem to be two major criticisms: ligatures do not show the original glyphs, and it can be hard to count letters. The former also has ligatures as discretionary option.
The family is available in two families, the standard family and Comic Code Ligatures.
Speaking of which, while I didn’t necessarily intend while making it, Comic Code seems to perform just as effectively for dyslexic readers as Comic Sans, judging by the response. It is my wish to make codes look less intimidating to humans, including those with dyslexia. Comic Sans resonates because it doesn’t talk down to you while making its message clearly heard with legible letters (not saying Comic Code is illegible tho).
#Comic fonty professional
Let’s face it sometimes, professional appearance is exactly what you don’t want. While others may have issues with the fundamental concept itself, I see it as a positive. It is an unapologetic admittance of Comic Sans’s positives, and a literal manifestation of “code like nobody’s watching”.Ĭomic Sans is definitely not devoid of criticism poor outline and spacing qualities stick out to me, which I addressed in Comic Code while respecting the same design intention. Designed specifically for programming as the name suggests, which is a corner of typography that involves intensive typing that feels more akin to handwriting than typesetting, this typeface took inspirations from friendly characteristics and low-resolution legibility of Comic Sans.
