Very nice, thank you! I see you have a checked bell icon, which I was missing from my usual go-to https://phosphoricons.com the other day. Definitely want to try these! Might I suggest giving the icons some more breathing room? Phosphor shows 7 icons per row with a lot more whitespace. Your longer rows (12 icons) seem a bit hard to scan.

Glad you like it! Phosphor Icons is my fav too!

Will reduce the icons grid to make it easier to scan, thanks for the idea!

Earlier quoted context omitted.

A png is about as much code as a compiled binary. They aren’t code, they might be the result of some code being compiled, but open source licenses normally define the source as the format most useful for editing, which probably is the input that a png icon is generated from, not the png itself.

OK sure, bad example. A Photoshop .psd file then.

I am not entirely familiar with the .psd format. However, a rule of thumb is that if you can open an image file in a text editor, see readable code, and modifying the code affects the image, then the image is definitely written in code.

TIL that Excel saves files as source code, as xlsx is XML

Is that supposed to be sarcastic? If a HTML source counts as „source code“, the excel file should count, too, right?

It just depends on the way the file is actually is in practice.

For xslx you basically get a XML file with a single tag, which then contains the whole content as a binary blob, stored in an attribute.

Just like you can make an svt that is essentially a single path tag with hundreds of numbers in a single attribute

And for the record, you can also do a single html tag with a gigantic inline blob binary. Calling that source code is just at best technically correct, because it practically isn't
