Contribute a Symbol
Submit an icon or accessibility note via GitHub to help expand and improve the shared symbol library.
To propose a new symbol, open an issue or pull request on the project’s GitHub repository. Include the SVG file, source context (e.g., ISO standard, Unicode code point), semantic name, and accessibility guidance. Icons should follow existing style guidelines—consistent stroke width, viewbox dimensions, and no embedded raster data. Your submission may also include notes on usage semantics or cultural variations.
All contributions are reviewed for technical compliance and alignment with accessibility best practices. Reviewers check for proper contrast ratios, screen reader compatibility, and clarity of intent. If your symbol builds on existing ones (like extending the recycling symbol), you must explain how it differs and why that distinction matters for users.
Once merged, your symbol becomes part of the core package and the website, credited in the contributors list. You retain copyright but grant the project a permissive license to distribute and modify your work. New symbols often originate from community needs like regional signage standards or niche technical domains.
