How google/material-design-icons works
This repository distributes Google’s Material Icons and Material Symbols as reusable visual assets rather than running an application. A consumer selects an icon set and style, then incorporates the corresponding platform or font assets into a product. The tree excerpt shows Android resources and a font directory; the README documents additional asset families, including SVG, iOS, PNG, and variable-font assets, whose implementation is not shown here. The graph therefore describes the documented asset offerings without inferring internal runtime wiring.
