FAQ

Welcome to the ReactCasts FAQ!

Q: Which Editor do you use? Which theme?
I use Visual Studio Code Editor with "One Monokai" theme

Q: What Font is that?
I actually use two different fonts. My default font is Operator Sans, but using the custom-css extension I'm able write a custom CSS that uses the FiraCode font for ligatures. Here's the CSS rule:

.token.keyword.operator, .js.storage.function.arrow {
  font-family: 'fira code';
}

In newer versions of VSCode you might need to do something like:

.mtk4 {
  font-family: 'fira code';
}

If you use Atom, you can achieve a similar effect by changing the atom's user CSS. Here's an example: https://gist.github.com/cassiozen/d1011664f4afc7a3e5004e65e9b35a8d

Q: Why do you use such a crazy font setup?
Well, being an "all-code" video series, I thought it would be good to at least have a nice combination of fonts =]

Q: What browser is this? Looks like a custom themed version of chrome?
I use Opera, which is basically Chrome with built-in ad blocker, energy saving and VPN.

Q: Which mind-mapping app do you use in some of your videos? I use https://www.text2mindmap.com (with a custom stylesheet)

Q: Can I suggest / Request a screencast?
Yes, just open an issue.
