Why I Standardized on Phosphor Icons Across 15 Repos (And Cut 60% of Icon Bundle Size)
The author standardized on Phosphor Icons across 15 repositories to resolve visual inconsistencies and reduce bundle size. Previously, the studio used five different icon systems, leading to a fragmented user experience and large file sizes, with one app's icon bundle reaching 84KB. By migrating to Phosphor, which offers six distinct weights within a single design family, the author achieved a unified visual identity and significantly improved performance, reducing the icon bundle size to 18KB.
