Description of the new feature

Cascadia Code (and Mono) are cool since it is developed for the modern coder. However, one could argue that a modern coder also looks "developer fonts" from the Nerd Fonts (https://github.com/ryanoasis/nerd-fonts) package.

https://github.com/microsoft/cascadia-code has a version for this:

Cascadia (Code|Mono) NF: a version of Cascadia that has Nerd Font symbols

I think it would be cool if these two versions were included in Windows Terminal by default.

Proposed technical implementation details

@DHowett commented on GitHub (Apr 2, 2025):

Thanks so much for the request! We're probably not going to do this, if only because the NF variants of the font are so much bigger than the non-NF variants. Since Terminal is checked into Windows, every byte counts... and I don't think we can take on the disk space hit.

(In addition: every font shipped with Terminal becomes a de facto system font; that is a very dangerous power 🙂)
