lx-icons

A comprehensive, scalable vector icon set (SVG) for the lx-theme UI and Pyapps ecosystem.

Overview

This repository provides the core icons required for building modern, responsive Tkinter applications using lxtheme and shared_libs. The icons are designed to integrate seamlessly with both dark and light modes, and include a vivid set for specialized colored indicators.

Note: This project is a component of the lxtools apps. It is not a general icon theme package like those used for desktop environments. Upon installation, it is only applied to lxtools applications. However, you can manually download and use the icons for your own projects, provided you respect the project's license.

Themes

• Dark: Icons optimized for dark theme interfaces (usually bright/white fills).
• Light: Icons optimized for light theme interfaces (usually dark/black fills).
• Vivid: Colored or accented icons that remain consistent regardless of the current theme (e.g., file types, alerts, specialized states).
