Outstand Icons
==============

[](#outstand-icons)

> A toolkit for working with icons in the block editor.

A growing set of icon enhancements for the block editor, served through the existing Gutenberg icon picker.

Features
--------

[](#features)

### Inline icons

[](#inline-icons)

Insert icons mid-text through a new **Inline icon** button in the rich-text toolbar (paragraph, heading, list, button, etc.). The picker lists every icon registered with the core `core/icon` block. See [docs/icons.md](docs/icons.md) for the full guide.

> Looking to register your own custom icons (or remove the ones that ship with WordPress)? See my [Icons Extended](https://github.com/s3rgiosan/icons-extended) plugin.

Installation
------------
