My challenge with icon sets, is what happens when I need something beyond the set? Maybe try a multi model LLM and give it the examples?

You can request icons here: https://github.com/praveenjuge/mynaui-icons/issues/new/choos...

But I do wonder if LLM can create SVG icons if we give it some good samples

What does "Open Source" do for graphical assets like icons? I'm more interested in the license, how can I use them, are you using a Creative Commons derivative or a custom license? https://mynaui.com/legal > You are prohibited from the following uses: > - Distributing or publishing the Item or its assets online. > - Placing Item design files into an End Product as-is. So can I put these on a web page or not? How abou…

Do open source licences apply to SVGs? They are technically icon written in code.

I may be a bit naive, as it just occurred to me.

What do you do without the set? Draw your own, or mash a couple of the existing ones together, in your preferred editor.

I keep thinking of making my own set of icons that are composable. I see a lot of sets where there are individual icons for “folder”, “folder with +”, “folder with -”, “folder with gear”, and so on, sometimes both with the added in internal space or an overlay to the bottom right, with each being separately designed. It strikes me that defining folder, +, -, , … then being able to ask for folder-with-gear-inside or -with-small--overlaying-bottom-right. You wouldn't want it all don dynamically of course, so some heavy caching or compiling to a sprite-set would be needed for efficiency.

Interesting question. I mean, one can claim that .png files are also written in code?..
