Using FontAwesome icons converted to pngs with https://fa2png.app/ .

To update

{icon-name} in steps below refers to the name you want to use for the icon; it is what will be after the namespace specified in the jres.

For example, the namespace for icons.jres in this package is ICON, and one of the icons in that group is arrow-up-solid; this makes {icon-name} “arrow-up-solid” & the icon file name arrow-up-solid-icon.png.

1. pxt target arcade at top level
2. rm -rf node_modules/pxt-common-packages to clear common packages (sometimes gets mixed up with icons)
3. Add icon under jres/icons/ as {icon-name}-icon.png
4. Add empty entry to icons.jres e.g. "{icon-name}": {}, (no trailing comma after last entry in json blob)
5. At top level run pxt buildjres
6. git tag v0.0.* where star is current version +1
7. git push --tags
