What font is this?

What font is being used in the text editor shown in the video? I have tried finding it and even took screenshots and used whatthefont website to find it but no luck. Just to note, it is not consolas etc as if you look at the i and l they are not the same as how consolas has the characters.

I think the editor is Sublime and I tried googling around for the default font for the editor. I found a screenshot of the same looking font here and a possible name but no googling finds any results to find the font - https://forum.sublimetext.com/t/what-is-sublime-texts-default-font-face/9202/3

Thanks!

The video is blocked for those not in the tech degree. I looked up the font Emilbus Mono and found from this stack overflow that it is an internal sublime font. Emilbus is Sublime backwards.

Oh right sorry! Didn't realize that it was a tech degree video :P Thanks for the reply! I take it there isn't a way to grab it from the app itself an export it?

The more I read I think Emilbus is a joke that a lot of people didn't get. This stack overflow is better.

The second answer shows how to get the default font used in Sublime

1) go to View menu and select Show Console

2) Then enter this command: view.settings().get('font_face')

The font differs based on OS

Oh right! I see. I don't use sublime as I personally don't like it. I use VSCode, so annoying I love that font! Thanks

I found out that it's just Menlo. Default font for OSX. Thanks for help, not sure why I can't give best answer.
