Hi Penpot community,
a few weeks ago I joined the Plugins Beta program. While testing the system, I made a multi-library icon plugin, All Icons, and I am continuing to develop it.
All Icons is a plugin that lets you quickly search through various icon libraries and easily add icons to your project. It has support for following icon libraries: Iconoir, Lucide, Material Design, Phosphor, and Bootstrap, with more to come.
Just like Penpot, All Icons is a free and open source software, with the code available in the GH repository - leave a star if you visit. In the repository, you will find installation instructions and can follow the development.
I would love to receive some feedback, and look forward to the Plugins going live.
Thank you for creating this amazing icons plugin! It’s working flawlessly, and the selection is truly impressive.
I have a couple of suggestions that could make it even better. First, it would be great to have a configuration option or a dropdown menu to select, include, or exclude specific libraries. While it’s convenient to have all the icons in one place, some icon libraries are more or less compatible with each other. Having the ability to curate only certain libraries would be a valuable improvement.
Additionally, adding tooltips or another quick way to view the names of the icons would be a fantastic feature. It would make navigating and selecting icons even more efficient.
Thank you @Louis. I hope the plugin will come handy and save you time.
@thierryc , thank you for checking out the plugin, those are great suggestions. I have good news that the next release will include a feature which will be a step towards icon sets management. It will be possible to close a set and hide the grid of icons - accordion style. However, the icon set selector (to exclude an icon set entirely from the view) is also in the backlog.
I agree about the tooltip and may have a nice idea on how to solve it. Stay tuned.
Thanks @M_s, definitely, more icon sets are coming.
It’s been a bit over a month since the initial post about All Icons, so I thought it’s a good time for a short update.
New features:
Support for new icon libraries: Bootstrap, Heroicons, Remixicon, Feather.
Collapsible icon sections - Each library’s icon list can be collapsed, saving you a lot of scrolling.
Icon metadata - The bar at the bottom of the app hosts icon metadata info. Hovering over an icon shows you information about the library, style variant, and icon name.
Wildcard search - The search bar now supports abbreviation-style input, making it quicker to search through icons, eg “arw dn” for “arrow down”.
“Bug report” and “Suggest a feature” - Links to report an issue and suggest a feature are now available in the bottom bar and will take you to the repository’s Issues and Discussions accordingly.
