Iconography

Paragon does not have a custom set of icons. Instead, we gather the best free and open source icons that suit our purposes and form a cohesive visual look and feel. Today, we primarily use the sharp style of Google Material system icons and are leaving Font Awesome icons behind.

To add an icon…

1. Verify that the icon exists in code.

2. Find the perfect icon in Google Material Figma

3. Copy the icon from Google Material Figma

4. Paste the icon in Paragon __Icons__ page. Note: Double check that the icon is 24px by 24px.

5. Publish Paragon Figma library
