This is the directory for the now-deprecated Material Icons fonts—note that these have not been updated since early 2022; the Material Symbols fonts are current, and can be found at [../variablefont](https://github.com/google/material-design-icons/tree/master/variablefont).

Material Icons are the non-variable classic icon fonts, while the Material Symbols variable fonts offer weight, optical size, grade and fill variations (with grade and Fill being intended also for animated effects).

The recommended way to use the Material Icons font is by linking to the web font hosted on Google Fonts:
