       | Hope you don't mind a very small feature request / suggestion...
       | when viewing search results, it would be great if you could
       | include a link to the parent collection for results (e.g. I see
       | an icon I really like in the results, and want to know which
       | collection it came from).

       | an icon.
       | 
       | This does not seem to be possible at the moment, _whenever the
       | icon is discovered through the search all icons feature_. Or am I
       | missing something?

         | Yeah, the lack of licensing info here is a bit of a deal-
         | breaker.
         | 
         | It uses the term "open source icons," but given how over-
         | used/abused that terminology is these days, it doesn't really
         | mean much to me.
         | 
         | I don't see any license info in the downloaded SVG files
         | either, from spot checking.

       | How does it compare to https://fontawesome.com?
       | 
       | [edit: seems to be a superset of it, as shown on this page
       | https://iconbuddy.app/fa-solid]

         | Similar concept to react-icons (https://react-
         | icons.github.io/react-icons/)in that regard.

       | For another great option in this space look at icomoon:
       | https://icomoon.io/#icons. It has both free and paid fonts with
       | some useful tools to build a custom set from different
       | collections and export them to various formats.

       | Nice! There's a similar project by Anthony Fu:
       | https://icones.js.org I wonder if both share the same superset of
       | icons, relying on the same Iconify framework?
