We would like to introduce the next evolution of the Cascadia font family, Cascadia Next.
Our talented typographer @aaronbell has created three variants of Cascadia Next for SC (Simplified Chinese), TC (Traditional Chinese), and JP (Japanese)
This pre-release contains limited character sets that cover a vast majority of use cases for these languages.
Note that this pre-release does not contain Arabic, Hebrew, or NerdFonts support.
Please try these fonts out! (Especially those who use SC, TC, and JP text in their terminals!)
We would love to hear your feedback! 😊

I don't think I could say anything to top this one, so here's the release notes for the first version of Cascadia in three years!
Thanks to the tireless work of @PhMajerus, the Cascadia family now supports a whopping 1140 new glyphs covering sextants, octants, large type pieces, eights, sedecimants, quadrants (separated), segmented digits, circles and checkerboards. In addition, the existing block elements have been aligned to fit the same grid as the new characters to make for seamless ANSI art.
See #708, #721, #723 and #727 for more details.
In addition to all of the above characters, the Cascadia family now comes with a native "Nerd Font" variant! It includes the entire set of glyphs as of April 2024 (all 9209 of them), and supersedes both unofficial variants "Caskaydia Cove" and "Delugia Code". Every glyph is metrics-compatible with the rest of Cascadia, so there should be no (or very few?) visual aberrations. @aaronbell is the star of Nerd Fonts for this release!
See #720 for all the details!

Shipping from the vaults and crypts of the world, the Cascadia font family returns!
Unearthed after centuries shrouded in myth, ḭ͕t͕ co͓mͅe̜̹̻s!
This is a fairly comprehensive (and spooky!) 🐛💀 update resolving many open issues.
NOTE: If you're using the version of Cascadia (Code, Mono) that ships with Windows Terminal, an update will be available in the coming weeks. In the meantime, you can choose to install a new version of the font (which Terminal may ignore) or switch to the powerline face.

This update to the Cascadia font family brings the following changes:
The full control pictures block has been added (u+2400 to u+2426). For purposes of rendering, the two letter
abbreviations have been used instead of the standard three letter abbreviations (#219)
Full support for Fira Code's current ligature set (with a few exceptions). Now featuring infinite arrows!!! (#276)

Reworked the hints for the mod and superscript glyphs so that they're bottom-up rather than top-down. This allows for
better bottom alignments.

We realized the Freetype rendering issue documented in #350 had been addressed in neither 2009.14 nor 2009.21. To that end, this is a reissue of 2009.21 with that workaround in place.
So, without further ado (and with a new build pipeline thanks to @madig!):
