Material design icons4/13/2023 Iconify project makes it easy to add SVG icons to websites and offers over 100,000 icons to choose from. So what is the alternative? Use SVG! IconifyĪll icons are available with Iconify. It causes website to load slower, which also affects SEO. Why load 5000 icons to display 5? It is a waste of bandwidth for visitors. Icon fonts contain lots of icons you do not use.If you want to display an image, use image. This results in blurry edges, bad alignment, it is especially bad when using Windows. When browser renders icon font glyph, it uses different algorythm than when rendering images. They were a good idea many years ago when browsers had poor support for SVG, but in modern world avoid icon fonts like a plague. Icon fonts are easy to use, but they are bad, very bad. Web font is is available in material-icons-font repository. To get SVG files, you can either clone GitHub repository or install NPM package. SVG files are scalable, duplicating them for different sizes is pointless. If you need a different size, change width and height attributes in the icon. Each directory contains up to 5 SVG files, one for each icon variation.Īll icons are 24x24, cleaned up and optimized. SVG files are available in the directory "svg", followed by icon name. This repository does not use the same build process as the official Google MDI repository and has a different folder structure. This readme explains how to use updated icons set in your projects. If you need another format, please open an issue on this repository and specify what format, size and colour you need. Other available formats are in different repositories: This repository includes only icons in SVG format. This repository includes several variations for each icon: Version 3 that is available in the official icons repository only includes 1 variation of each icon. You can find an older version of this icon set in google/material-design-icons repository.īecause the official repository is no longer maintained, I have decided to make an alternative repository with the latest icons.
