For example, in VS Code, you can enable stylistic sets (and other OpenType features) via `settings.json`:\r\n\r\n```\r\n\"editor.fontLigatures\": \"'ss01', 'ss02', 'ss03', 'ss19', 'ss20'\"\r\n```\r\n\r\n#### To enable the Cursive form of the italic, here's the code you should use:\r\n```\r\n\"editor.fontLigatures\": \"'calt', 'ss01'\",\r\n```\r\nIf you're using an environment that does not support the `ss01` OT feature, one option to consider is [opentype-feature-freezer](https://github.com/twardoch/fonttools-opentype-feature-freezer/).\r\n\r\n# Character Sets\r\n![Cascadia Code](images/cascadia-code-characters.png)\r\n![Cascadia Code Italic](images/cascadia-code-italic-characters.png)\r\n![Symbols for Legacy Computing and other block elements](images/cascadia-legacycomputing-characters.png)\r\n\r\n# Installation\r\n\r\n**You can download the latest version of Cascadia Code from the releases page here:** [https://github.com/microsoft/cascadia-code/releases](https://github.com/microsoft/cascadia-code/releases)\r\n\r\n##### Font formats:\r\n\r\n- `ttf variable`: we recommend this version for **all users,** and particularly those on Windows or any other OS that employs TrueType hinting. It offers the greatest diversity of weight options (anything from 200-700).\r\n- `ttf static`: in the rare situation where the above variable font version is not supported, or a singular weight is preferred to the entire range, static formats are supplied. However, please note they do not have the same degree of hinting quality as the variable font versions.\r\n- `otf static`: for users who prefer OTF format fonts, otf static instances are provided. At this time we do not have a variable font OTF version. \r\n- `WOFF2`: These versions are provided for the purposes of web use, and are available both as variable fonts, and static instances. \r\n\r\nOnce unzipped, right-click the font file and click `Install for all users`. This will install the font onto your machine. \r\n\r\n👉 **Note:** If you have previously installed a version of Cascadia Code, please uninstall the previous version *prior* to installing a new version. Not doing so can result in improper rendering. \r\n\r\nFor more details and app-specific instructions, [please check the wiki](https://github.com/microsoft/cascadia-code/wiki/Installing-Cascadia-Code). \r\n\r\n# Get involved\r\nInstructions on how to modify and submit an update to the Cascadia Code source is [available in the wiki](https://github.com/microsoft/cascadia-code/wiki/Modifying-Cascadia-Code).\r\n\r\n\r\n# Communicating with the Team\r\n\r\nThe easiest way to communicate with the team is via GitHub Issues.
