Description

Followup to #11313

Objective:

To provide a new, modern, and maintainable icon management and generation model.

New process to generate and manage icons

  • Reference an index of icon props
  • Batch process icons
  • Support specific icon Instantiation for edge cases

Deliverables

  • MVP for icon generation and management
  • Supporting documentation
  • Clean, well groomed implementation code

Long term enhancements

  • Icon index is independent of Figma, React, or any on framework
  • Design, dev, core dev can modify this index (likely managed in github) to support new and/or remove deprecated icons
  • Connect core, react, design, and more to this single source of truth
  • Leverage a human readable code format (JSON requires syntax knowledge design may not have and is especially hard read when minified)
  • The established solution should be clear, concise, immediately recognizable
