The material icon font is the easiest way to incorporate material icons withweb projects. We have packaged all the material icons into a single font thattakes advantage of the typographic rendering capabilities of modern browsers sothat web developers can easily incorporate these icons with only a few lines ofcode.

Using the font is not only the most convenient method, but it is efficient andlooks great:

• 900+ icons all from a single, small file.
• Served from Google Web Font servers or can be self hosted.
• Supported by all modern web browsers.
• Colored, sized and positioned entirely with CSS.
• Vector-based: Looks great at any scale, retina displays, low-dpi displayscreens.

The icon font weighs in at only 42KB in its smallest woff2 format and 56KB in standard woff format.By comparison, the SVG files compressed with gzip will generally be around 62KB in size, but thiscan be reduced considerably by compiling only the icons you need into a single SVG file with symbolsprites.

For browsers that do not support ligatures, fall back to specifying the iconsusing numeric character references like the example below:
