javascript: support for === and !===

[trevorhibblen]

sorry if this has already come up. I really love this font, tho i write mostly js code.

in javascript it's common to use triple equals for "strict" equality:

ex:

true: 1 == '1'
false: 1 === '1'
true: 1 !== '1'

javascript is truly magical.

currently the first two == and != leave a dangling=.

to keep it from conflicting, maybe the triple lined mathematical equivalence/identical-to would fit:

true: 1 ≡ 1
false: 1 ≢ 1

I'd love this. As it does look quite sore. Is my only complaint about this font.

could be a dupe of https://github.com/larsenwork/monoid/issues/151

I thought at one time this actually worked, but I could be mistaken. I can confirm though that ==, ===, and !== do not render as ligatures in Atom right now.

!= does render as a ligature, but leaves a dangling = when written as !==.

I'd like to see support for this, as I prefer Monoid over Fira Code.

So, I just checked my windows gaming desktop, which has an older version of Monoid installed compared to what I have installed on OSX on my Macbook Pro, and it actually does have ligatures for !== and ===.

What happened? Is this a problem with a newer version of the font? Or is this a problem with MacOS/OSX vs Windows?

We should try to get this fixed. Monoid is nicer looking than Fira Code when these are working, IMO. :)

@larsenwork if we set a bounty to get this fixed, how much would be enough?

=== works in atom and sublime but not vs code

The characters are actually missing in the Retina version. Switching to the Regular version fixed my issue. Though it'd be nice for the Retina version to work.
