# Zed Icons
|
|
|
|
## Guidelines
|
|
|
|
Icons are a big part of Zed, and they're how we convey hundreds of actions without relying on labeled buttons.
|
|
When introducing a new icon, it's important to ensure consistency with the existing set, which follows these guidelines:
|
|
|
|
1. The SVG view box should be 16x16.
|
|
2. For outlined icons, use a 1.2px stroke width.
|
|
3. Not all icons are mathematically aligned; there's quite a bit of optical adjustment. However, try to keep the icon within an internal 12x12 bounding box as much as possible while ensuring proper visibility.
|
|
4. Use the `filled` and `outlined` terminology when introducing icons that will have these two variants.
|
|
5. Icons that are deeply contextual may have the feature context as their name prefix. For example, `ToolWeb`, `ReplPlay`, `DebugStepInto`, etc.
|
|
6. Avoid complex layer structures in the icon SVG, like clipping masks and similar elements. When the shape becomes too complex, we recommend running the SVG through [SVGOMG](https://jakearchibald.github.io/svgomg/) to clean it up.
|
|
|
|
## Sourcing
|
|
|
|
Most icons are created by sourcing them from [Lucide](https://lucide.dev/).
|
|
Then, they're modified, adjusted, cleaned up, and simplified depending on their use and overall fit with Zed.
|
|
|
|
Sometimes, we may use other sources like [Phosphor](https://phosphoricons.com/), but we also design many icons completely from scratch.
|
|
|
|
## Contributing
|
|
|
|
To introduce a new icon, add the `.svg` file to the `assets/icon` directory and then add its corresponding item to the `icons.rs` file within the `crates` directory.
|
|
|
|
- SVG files in the assets folder follow a snake_case name format.
|
|
- Icons in the `icons.rs` file follow the PascalCase name format.
|
|
|
|
Make sure to tag a member of Zed's design team so we can review and adjust any newly introduced icon.
