Integrate

Automate symbol updates into your build pipeline using GitHub Actions or npm scripts for reliable, repeatable workflows.

GitHub Actions workflows can pull the latest version of commonsymbols icons on every push or at scheduled intervals, ensuring your design system stays in sync. You define thresholds for semver updates, and the action runs automated checks on icon metrics—like stroke consistency or contrast—before merging.

npm scripts can be wired into your local dev and build processes to install or update icon sets. Scripts support flags for generating icon Sprites, generating type definitions, or validating against your design tokens. This keeps dependencies explicit and repeatable across environments.

Build-time integration includes validation against project-specific icon rules—like required fill color or naming conventions—so design decisions are enforced programmatically. Teams reduce drift between design files and shipped components by closing the loop in CI/CD with asset audits.
