Introduction

IconJet is a small client-side icon browser/generator. With IconJet, developers are able to browse numerous open-source icon sets and choose which ones to include in their Jetpack. At the developer's election, icons can be automatically converted to inherit the appearance and mask characteristics of the default Jetpack icon style (default icon style TBD) via a JavaScript-based Photoshop API call.

Philosophy

Jetpack will relentlessly pursue the goal of "gorgeous by default" in all areas. One foundational area where this is clearly evident to the consumer is the icon styling across jetpacks. Providing a mechanism for cohesion in the appearance of our add-ons is crucial to maintaining a professional and clean interface presentation.
