Hi friends!

First of all, thanks for this fantastic project!

I think the title of this discussion is pretty much self-explanatory. 😉 I am looking for guidelines on how to contribute with a new icon. How should I proceed?

Should one create, e.g, foo.svg under src/_icons and open a PR? I see the .svg files there have an specific header (probably for parsing/tagging purposes), but that makes them "invalid" regarding the SVG spec. Should one create the asset in Inkscape or similar and then manually edit it to strip down contour or other properties?

Again, thanks for the project!

Cheerio!
