Don't get me wrong, this project is insanely cool! ✌️

The only deterrent for me, is what if I need an icon that doesn't exist?

Normally, I would be able to cobble something together from exist SVGs pretty quick, but this? Not everyone has the skills and patience to do what you do with CSS. It's pretty amazing. But therefore also a bit scary 😉

Hi Rasmus,

We've made a fully open-source icon set icons.eosdesignsystem.com/ and we're backed by a big community. Our icons are available in several formats: SVG, PNG, Font with ligatures, NPM, Ruby Gem.

I think CSS icons are amazing, but I suggest that you take a look at ours since they may fit your use case better in this case, plus, you can just get in touch with us and we will add the new icon you need in no time!

I agree with you is scary indeed, won't be able to cover very much, but I could up to 500 and 90 on the making. If you have something specific let me know and I will add to the list if doable with current resources.

Thing is I do not except people to include this in a corporate project , but portfolios and smaller projects.

Thank for the feedback any ways.
