That was the first step in all the topics I have been addressing in the past years at ELO Digital Office.
Making the icons for the different clients and modules like the ELO Administration Console. Making Icon Fonts for some new modules and libraries in Git. Supporting our partners with some special ELO-like icons and the ELO Icon Toolbox. Writing the documentation, style guide, and training of the ELO Icon Toolbox.
How to set a language out of metaphors and also the psychology bound to it. I learned about different formats for the different uses of the icons (ICOs, PNGs, SVGs). Communicate with symbols.
Having an overview of all the functions in any of our many user interfaces. Batch working and improving workflow to get the icons at the right place after renewing thousands of icons at once for some versions of the software.
