Switching up fonts can bring some life and energy back into your editor. You aren't locked into the default font.

Search for "Font"
Specify the name of the new font

To see the ligatures in action, create a new file called index.js. Input the following symbols to see how font ligatures represent these common programming compound symbols as one character.
