"Inspired by HackerNoon's retro design vibe, these icons capture the essence of the internet's good old days," said HackerNoon Designer Devansh Chaudhary. "Meticulously designed on a 24px grid, the Pixel Icon Library is designed to ensure perfect alignment and consistency to enrich your web/app/product/page/life experience."

HackerNoon's Pixel Icon Library contains 120+ Pixel Icons as light SVG Files, with the entire collection totaling 64.7 KB. The PNG files are available in 12px, 16px, 24px, and 48px for both Light and Dark Mode.
