tonsky/FiraCode

Choose this fork only if you specifically want its Scala/Scalaz-centric ligatures and accept an old, highly divergent codebase. If you want a maintained general-purpose programming font, upstream Fira Code is the safer choice.

Prefer this fork only if you specifically want its release/workspace tooling or plan to maintain a customized downstream branch. For everyone else, upstream Fira Code is the better default because it is active, much larger, and retains the full documentation and established font workflow.

Choose upstream unless you specifically need the old 2021 snapshot; this fork adds no visible features and is materially behind on active maintenance.

Prefer upstream unless you explicitly need the fork's legacy ligature precedence fixes or ballot-box glyph additions. This fork is too stale for general adoption and is best treated as a niche, frozen customization.

Prefer this fork only if the reverted regression fix is the reason you need it. Otherwise, upstream is the better default because it is actively maintained and much further ahead.

Prefer upstream unless you explicitly need this older, unchanged snapshot. This fork adds no visible value of its own and is best treated as stale archival material.

Prefer upstream unless you need this exact old snapshot for a narrow archival or experimentation reason. For adopters, the main signal is staleness, not differentiation: it adds nothing and lags a maintained upstream by 52 commits.

Choose upstream unless you specifically need this frozen 2022 snapshot; the fork adds nothing and lags behind active upstream maintenance.

Choose this fork only if its specific ligature removals or legacy editor tweaks are exactly what you need; otherwise upstream is the safer choice because this fork is materially stale and far behind.
