BEFORE YOU CHANGE ICONS

!!IMPORTANT

The icons package has a custom build process, as it generates its both stripped svgs and glyphs that are committed to the repo, so that they can be accessed as paths when published.

You will manually need to run yarn update:icons from the root repository, or yarn build from inside the icon folder whenever you make changes to icon.

New Icons should be added to /packages/core/icon/svgs_raw/.

NOTE: The reduced-ui-pack package should contain all the icons we include in this package. Make sure to rebuild the reduced-ui-pack sprite as outlined in the README.md file included within that package.

If your icon is used only in a specific context or product, place it in /icon/src/icons/subfolder and it will be namespaced appropriately.
