With the millions of negative (and dismissive) comments available for free all over the web, I’m pretty sure there is already one similar or the same and we just don’t need another. Let’s celebrate something neat that someone made and is sharing with us!

Bravo! Perfectly said

This is the first time I've seen TODO as a ligature, and I am really into the idea. Is this something you can add to existing fonts? Does anyone have any recommendation for a good programming font that does this?

Huh. You know what, I kinda dig it.

I could do without operators being condensed into ligatures, but that's just me. The gigantic triple equals strikes fear into my C programmer heart

Yeah, I generally do _not_ like programming-oriented ligatures, but the one for todo is sort of interesting.

However, many editors can accomplish the same goal by highlighting or changing the text colour of todos.

While I understand the reaction, it’s not exactly constructive and a bit below the standard here. The font/tooling is fully open source, so feel free to remove the ligature table and recompile it yourself.

I personally find the TODO and NOTE ligatures to be a great idea, however I know you’re talking about the common programming ligatures instead.
