To install Monokai Pirokai, follow these easy steps:

## Recommended VS Code Settings ⚙️

💻 To get the most out of Monokai Pirokai, we recommend the following settings:

- **Use a Nerd Font** : Nerd Fonts are a collection of fonts that add additional glyphs to your editor, such as icons for programming languages and tools. We recommend installing a Nerd Font and using it with Neon City for an enhanced coding experience. See [this nerd font repo](https://github.com/ryanoasis/nerd-fonts) for a list of Nerd Fonts.
- **Enable Ligatures** : Ligatures are a typographic feature that combine two or more characters into a single glyph. We recommend enabling ligatures for an enhanced coding experience.

💡 In addition to these settings, we recommend the following VS Code settings:

```json
{
  "workbench.colorTheme": "Monokai Pirokai - Arctic Frost",
  "editor.fontFamily": "'Fira Code Nerd Font', 'Jetbrains Mono Nerd Font', 'Hack Nerd Font', 'monospace'",
  "editor.lineHeight": 1.5,
  "editor.smoothScrolling": true,
  "editor.fontLigatures": true,
  "editor.minimap.enabled": false,

}
```
