: How do I achieve this style of line that is smooth and consistent with corners? I would like to know an efficient way to achieve this style of line that is consistent and smooth, especially

I assume you already know the basics of using the Pen tool. Anyway, here's how I would reproduce such a graphic using Illustrator. I don't know if I would describe it as "efficient". To achieve the effect requires some manual work, which is unsurprising as the artwork looks hand drawn rather than the perfection you usually get using a vector image editor.


Draw the basic shape, and apply a tapered stroke brush. See the
middle example in blue below. The stroke I chose is highlighted in red in the brushes panel.
Use the Width tool to vary the thickness of the line
Expand the artwork, then Simplify the path - I used about 75% for the
Curve Precision. Sometimes simplifying produces unwanted anchors. You may have to delete these or fix them manually.
Use Live Corners to round the corners as required. And make any adjustments to
the finished path. The finished example is on the right below in red.
