Icon Design and Release Process

Requesting and Delivering Icons

Our team operates on a monthly release cycle aligned with the development cycle for updating icon fonts. We suggest submitting your request between weeks 3 and 4 of each month to increase efficiency. This will include your icon request in the upcoming icon-font release. Any submissions during the blackout period (weeks 1 and 2) will be shifted to the next release cycle, as these weeks are dedicated to design production.

When we receive your request, our team will review its validity and add it to the design queue if approved. You will receive an estimated production timeline and the opportunity to support the final design before its inclusion in the release wave. Approved icons are added to the development release wave for icon fonts and are available in all related design resources. Ensure to follow the sign-off process, so your hero makes it to the next release wave.
