Description
Summary 💡
Google has recently introduced a new major iteration on their icon system: Material Symbols: https://material.io/blog/introducing-symbols. This is an awesome new iteration on their icon system, and more importantly, they have made it the default! Proof https://fonts.google.com/icons. This new iteration seems much better.
For SVGs, we might be able to implement the weight with the stroke-width attribute, see: https://feathericons.com/ but we might have to build these SVGs ourselves: https://github.com/google/material-design-icons/issues/1360.
Examples 🌈
- https://developers.google.com/fonts/docs/material_symbols
- https://github.com/angular/components/issues/24845
- https://github.com/google/material-design-icons
Motivation 🔦
We will need to update our icons to reflect this change, both for font and SVG icons. It's an important step forward in terms of icon
