## Description

Icon-sets is a repository and toolkit for aggregating, optimizing, and managing open-source vector icon collections. It functions as an SVG icon collection manager, vector icon library, and processing utility that organizes design assets into standardized JSON data structures and graphic files.

The project provides comprehensive capabilities for icon import, export, processing, and rendering. Imported vector graphics undergo schema-driven validation, security sanitization, and format standardization alongside geometric transformations such as scaling, rotation, and flipping. Alias-based data reduction and duplicate removal minimize collection file sizes while remote package management synchronizes external sources. Users can explore categorized icon sets through discovery and query-based search tools, and serialize processed collections into various standard vector formats, structured JSON bundles, and distributable packages for web integration.
