How to publish a library from a file?

Participant ,
Feb 22, 2024 Feb 22, 2024

I've downloaded a XD file with all material design icons, I'd like to "convert" it into a library with those icons, how to? Would I have to convert each icon individually into a symbol within XD? I used a plugin "icons 4 design" from "EM software" but they updated that and now it almost only displays icons from paid packages.

Hello @joaosp, as far as I remember, the published library can only include styles (colors & character/text) and components, so yes I'd say you should convert the icons you want to be included in the library to components (as also mentioned in this tutorial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=43zwSCgPBno )

Also the most detailed tutorial about libraries in XD I've seen was by Alex On Design, you can check it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2RoJljzYg1o
Hope this helps!
