For those wondering what SF symbols are:<p><a href="https://developer.apple.com/sf-symbols/" rel="nofollow">https://developer.apple.com/sf-symbols/</a><p>This is not my iconset of choice, though.
> The default format is PDF.<p>Genuine question: what’s your use case for having a single SF Symbols icon as a PDF file? Let alone having that as the default? In my own experience, I’d want SVG nearly every time.
But these are copyright by Apple so are you allowed to use them on your commercial websites and apps?
This is great! I found myself asking my AI agents to generate those icons every so often (esp. for websites), so thank you for taking the time to build this.<p>Quick question, are you also planning on supporting animations?
Thanks! I'm not sure how animations would translate into these exported formats. SF Symbols animations are typically state driven, and that doesn't really translate to a standalone SVG/PNG/PDF. You'd get something that autoplays on loop, or fires once. Let me know if you had something else in mind.
clever hack reaching into the private ivar. curious if this holds up across macos updates or if apple has been stable with NSSymbolImageRep. also, is the main value here batch exports or is it specifically for letting agents grab icons without the gui
any chance for other icon sets? lucide/tabler/material. keeping icons consistent between a web app and ios app is pain when the toolchains dont overlap
