I spent some time polishing my Inconsolata fork into something I would actually want to use every day: coding ligatures, a slightly narrower variant, rebuilt font artifacts, and a small live specimen site. The demo is live here: https://vinitkumar.github.io/Inconsolata/ What changed The first pass added ligature glyphs, but I realized quickly that having them only under dlig was not enough. Most editors do not enable discretionary ligatures by default. So the rebuilt font now exposes the operator substitutions through both liga and dlig. The ligature set covers the operators I reach for most often: != == === !== -> <- => <= >= :: ++ -- && || // /* */ <> << >> |> <| I also added Inconsolata Pragmatic Narrow, a narrower variable build inspired by the density of PragmataPro. It pins the existing width axis to wdth=85 while preserving the weight axis, so it feels familiar but gives code a little more horizontal room. The demo site The site uses WOFF2 files from the rebuilt font output and…
