Slant community chat on DiscoursePro Many ligatures supported
Quite a few compared to some of the other fonts that support ligatures.
Con Some ligatures will never be implemented
Because FiraCode aims to be language-agnostic, character combinations that perform different actions in different languages are not implemented. One such character combination is /= that is an inequality operator in languages like Erlang and Haskell, while it means divide and assign in C.
Con No italics
There is no italic variant as of 4/7/17.
Con Lacks !=
Some coding fonts with ligatures, like Fira Code, turn != into ≠, but Hasklig does not.
Pro Several styles available
Many of the common styles are available, including Sans Serif and Slab Serif with normal, bold, italic, and bold italic styles.

Pro 7000+ glyphs
Not only does Pragmata Pro have all the ligatures you might want, but box drawing and math symbols are available as well. Might be the pretty close to a Unicode-complete font.
Pro Responsive author, frequent updates
The font is frequently updated by the author with requested glyphs/ligatures and fixes for issues reported by users.
