SVGIconViewer 1.3

I grew tired of the same search for svg icons, navigating the either outdated or incomplete online archives for the Microsoft Fluent UI icon set. Navigating the folder structure is painful, and the plugins for displaying SVG in explorer are slow and problematic.

My solution was to write what started as a a quick method to search the svg icon library into something a little more robust, and have since added Bootstrap and Tablar-Icons for a total icon count of 46,998 SVG icons!

I discovered that many icons look pretty good if you stack the outline over the solid icon and use different colors (pictured above), so this mode is included out of the gate for icons which include both a solid and outline version.

While the target language for the source is Delphi, there is a compiled and signed executable in the releases for those who have a windows development environment and want a faster method of working with and discovering these great icon sets.
