# Simple Icons
## Build Process
## Want to contribute?
1. Acquire source vector file.
1. Simplify icon in vector editing tool (I use [Affinity Designer](https://affinity.serif.com/en-gb/)).
- Constrain within a 16x16 viewbox.
- Ensure there are no strokes.
- Simplify and minimise paths.
- Make all paths white.
1. Export SVG.
1. Run SVGO on the SVG file.
1. Add object to [simple-icons.json](https://github.com/danleech/simple-icons/blob/gh-pages/src/simple-icons.json).
1. Run [build.js](https://github.com/danleech/simple-icons/blob/gh-pages/src/build.js) in Node.
1. Find an official source vector image.
2. Use your SVG editor of choice to produce a monochrome icon (with a view to keeping the file size as small as possible).
3. Optimize the SVG using SVGO and add it to the `/icons` directory.
4. Add an entry to `/src/simple-icons.json` with:
- The icon title
- The HEX colour value
- The URL of the source vector image (or the page its available at)
