Generate PNG icon imagesets for Xcode asset catalogs from two sources. Generating icon assets for an iOS/macOS Xcode project Searching for icons across open source collections Creating PNG imagesets (1x, 2x, 3x) for asset catalogs Replacing placeholder icons with production-quality assets Matching existing icon styles in an Xcode project Both sources produce identical Xcode-compatible imagesets. Choose based on need: | Source | Icons | Requires | Best for | |--------|-------|----------|----------| | Iconify API | 275,000+ from 200+ collections | Internet | Wide selection, specific styles, open source icons | | SF Symbols | 5,000+ Apple symbols | macOS only | Apple-native style, offline use | Before generating, check the project's existing icons for size, color, and weight consistency. Both methods produce a complete Xcode imageset: Determine icon needs: what the icon represents, preferred style, target color, and size. If the project already has icons, check existing style: Iconify API (recommended for wide selection): SF Symbols (for Apple-native style): Browse the SF Symbols app or reference common names: | Use Case | Symbol Name | |----------|-------------| | Document | doc.text
