Window: decorations: full startup_mode: Maximized title: My Home LenovoYoga font: normal: family: Cousine NF size: 12.0 offset: x: 0 y: 2 glyph_offset: x: - 1 y: 0 draw_bold_text_with_bright_colors: false colors: primary: background: '#000000' foreground: '#FFFFFF' # įull default configuration you can find here. Here is mine (I removed all strings which I don’t setup): Just follow the guide and make your own file.

Then comes the easiest part - Alacritty configuration. I finally selected Cousine Nerd Font as my main font. Here is the list of fonts I found the best for me in the preferential order: I tried all Nerd Fonts and finally found one which fits me the most. The key to correct work of Alacritty is a font. wsltty can display almost all digraphs from he VIM digraphs table, while Alacritty does not show all Asian and some other symbols. If you are using digraphs, then Alacritty might not be for you. It allows me to use icons for LF file manager and utilities like ls deluxe. Configuration is made via simple “YAML” file.īecause I almost never use emojis in my texts and terminal, I gave it up for better support of Nerd Fonts with all special glyphicons. It supports UTF-8 fully, but does not have good support of Emojies.

I like Alacritty preliminary because of its rendering quality and simple configuration. Yes, I really like wsltty and I would recommend it to anyone but I missed some capabilities of more flexible configuration there, especially configuration of the fonts rendering where I can fine tune distance between lines, between characters and adjust positions of glyphs.Īnd I wanted to have something new, more flexible but yet simpler to configure. Maybe it is good to explain my motivation to change wsltty to another emulator. Here I will explain how I finally configured Alacritty and made it my main terminal emulator. In my previous post about WSL setup I mentioned that Alacritty gave me some glitches in the LF file manager.
