Hacking on material-icons-svg

Downloading Icons

The SVG files stored in the icons folder can be downloaded by running the included download.go file with go run download.go. These files should be kept in version control in order to easily track changes.

Building

After downloading the original SVG files, npm run build will run the build process. The SVG files will be converted to TypeScript React components with svgr and stored in a ts-components folder. TypeScript will then compile the components into JavaScript files stored in a components folder.
