Summary

A dedicated section on the Sistent Components Page displaying all available icons would significantly enhance discoverability and usability. Currently, contributors and users may struggle to find existing icons, leading to duplication or missed opportunities to leverage available resources. Having a centralized location where all icons are displayed would streamline the development process and improve accessibility.

Benefits

  • 📌 Enhanced Discoverability: Users and contributors can quickly browse through available icons without digging through documentation or code.
  • 🔄 Prevents Duplication: Ensures contributors check for existing icons before creating new ones, leading to better resource management.
  • 🎨 Improved UI/UX: A well-structured icon library within the components page provides a more intuitive and efficient experience for both designers and developers.
  • 🔍 Easier Contribution & Design Consistency: Maintains consistency across the system by making it simple to reference and reuse icons in designs and implementations.
  • 📊 Scalability: As the icon library grows, this section can act as a structured directory, making it easier to manage future updates.
    Suggested Implementation
  • 📁 Create a dedicated section on the Sistent Components page displaying all available icons.
  • 🔍 Interactive Features: Add search and filter options to help users quickly locate specific icons based on name, category, or usage.
  • 🏷 Metadata Display: Show useful details like the icon name, size variants, and accessibility attributes.
  • 📄 Usage Guidelines: Provide example code snippets for each icon, showing how to implement them in various contexts.
  • 🌐 Live Preview: Allow users to visually browse and interact with icons before using them.

Build something similar to mui icons provide. Main functionality like list all of the icons and having the search functionality of the icons.
