They can convey meaning, add visual interest, and enhance the overall user experience. They can also take a lot of time to create and implement. Thankfully, SwiftUI comes with a built-in library of icons that you can use in your apps called SF Symbols. While SF Symbols are a fantastic resource, they still have a limited selection of icons (and very strict Apple guidelines). In this article, we’ll explore how to use SF Symbols in SwiftUI, we&rsquo;ll learn about another open-source icon library, and finally we&rsquo;ll learn how to create custom icons that fit your app’s design language.</p>
