Hello everyone 

I have just published my project on Product Hunt 
https://www.producthunt.com/posts/css-gg/

If you find it interesting please consider upvoting.

#### Site: [View site directly](https://css.gg)

--

css.gg is a set of minimalistic looking icons, customizable and easy to use.

The entire library is built in CSS making it ideal for those who focus on ⚡️ performing website since they render very fast, among other features you can compile just how you would do with the rest of the style.

🥂 css.gg is entirely free and it will be forever.

🛠 For those wish to integrate it in their app there are API endpoints available with all icon details including style, markup and even views and API calls.

📖 For those who wish to learn and preview you have each icon on a single page and you can preview the CSS directly to learn how it was built

🚀 Performance is just unpar with other options since it is entirely CSS, you can apply the style to any class and they are designed to stand alone without breaking your layout.

📏Scalability is not an issue , all icons are Retina Ready by default, designed by code makes it possible to have any size you like as regular icon or perhaps backdrop. Scaling works as magic with a single CSS variable "--ggs"

Thank you to everyone who did support this project so far, and I am overwhelmed with the feedback I got, only on github 70+ stars on the first day.

Any one who needs personal demo please reach out.
