Description

So far in our App [prototype](https://github.com/dwyl/app/issues/235#issuecomment-556298536) we've been using these icons: https://www.material.io/resources/icons
The project is maintained by people who work for Google https://github.com/material-components
and the SVG icons appear to be well optimised:

The actual SVG file is tiny and we could _very_ easily make a **template** from it to allow custom UI themes.

I don't know if SVG icons are going to be feasible in our App if we want to support older devices/browsers, but support is good all the way back to IE9: https://caniuse.com/#search=svg

We're _very_ open to suggestions on alternative Icon Libraries. 💬
In the past we've used [fontawesome.com/icons](https://fontawesome.com/icons) | [flaticon.com/free-icons](https://www.flaticon.com/free-icons) | [thenounproject.com](https://thenounproject.com/)
We'd love to know which one is _objectively_ "_better_" or if it's just a matter of personal preference? 💭
