## Building and Contributing to Adwaita
-Symbolic icons are no longer maintained using hand rolled ruby script and inkscape to render them out, but
instead shares the same workflow as 3rd party symbolics, the [icon
devkit](https://gitlab.gnome.org/Teams/Design/icon-development-kit).
+The icon set for system components shares the same workflow as 3rd party app symbolics, the [icon
devkit](https://gitlab.gnome.org/Teams/Design/icon-development-kit).
-While many legacy symbolics only live as the exported individual SVGS in `Adwaita/scalable/`, the
replacements are maintained in `src/symbolic/core.svg`. The contexts are [no longer
used](https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/adwaita-icon-theme/-/issues/73) and all icons go into `actions`. Please
refer to the [Devkit guidelines](https://gitlab.gnome.org/Teams/Design/icon-development-kit) on how to
structure the metadata.

Do note that no new additions should be made unless very thoroughly discussed. *a-i-t* is the wrong way to
reuse icon assets (no API, false promise of stability).
### Recoloring
-The color of the icon set is defined at runtime by the gtk theme. Every single icon from the set is actually
embedded inside an xml container that has a stylesheet overriding the colors.
+The color of the icon set is defined at runtime by [gtk](https://gtk.org). Every single icon from the set is

There is a couple of things the icon author needs to be aware of and a few things s/he can make use of. The
stylesheet is setting the color of the fill for all rectangles and paths. **DO NOT** leave any rectangles or
paths with no fill/stroke thinking it's invisible.
