Most teams treat UI assets like an afterthought.

It shows.

Crisp icons. Consistent exports. Better design-to-dev handoff.

That’s how polished software gets built.

AXIALIS helps software teams turn source assets into polished, production-ready outputs.

Design systems often fail because of icons.

Not typography.
Not spacing.

Icons.

Icon design tip:

If two icons use slightly different shades,
your UI will look inconsistent.

Use a fixed palette for your entire icon set.

Stop fighting your icon editor.

IconVectors 1.30 for macOS exports SwiftUI icons as real code from SVG.

Design once. Ship everywhere. 🚀
SVG → edit once → export Windows + macOS sizes (16→1024) → production-ready ✅

Stop exporting icons by hand — make icons a build artifact.

IconVectors (SVG master) → IconGenerator (.AXICP + F4 export + F5–F8 overlays) → CI via CLI.

What’s your biggest pain: dark mode, overlays, naming, or export sizes?

Stop exporting PNGs one by one 😵‍💫

Web icon sets are everywhere.

Great for websites.

But Windows desktop software is a different discipline.

It needs:
• True ICO support
• Multi-resolution embedding
• High-DPI compatibility

AXIALIS focuses on professional Windows icon production.

Spent too much time fixing SVG icon colors.

So we built Instant Recolor.

Match any icon to your brand palette in one click.

IconVectors — macOS & Windows.

IconVectors tip: View → Source Code (F3) = real-time Source Code Viewer.

SVG/XAML/React/SwiftUI update live while you edit → fewer export loops.

“Axialis IconVectors with the Source Code Viewer open, showing code updating in real time while editing an icon.”

Vector icons are great.
But desktop apps still need full icon sets.

IconGenerator and IconVectors are designed to work together.

Most indie devs underestimate how much first impressions matter on the App Store.
Your icon and screenshots are your real landing page. Features come second.

Windows apps don’t run at one resolution.
They live across multiple DPI scales.

We built IconVectors to make multi-resolution export effortless.

Desktop polish matters.

📍 Apple / macOS

Shipping a macOS app is easy.
Shipping a macOS app that feels polished is a craft.

Windows developers don’t need illustration software.

They need:

• clean SVG
• multi-resolution export
• real ICO generation
• pixel-perfect control

That’s why AXIALIS built IconVectors.

Not illustration.
Icon engineering.

If you’re building for macOS + Windows, this SVG → ICO/ICNS workflow avoids 90% of icon scaling issues 👇

26.02.2026 23:19 👍 1 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0

Quick reminder:

ICNS: 16, 32, 64, 128, 256, 512, 1024
ICO: 16, 24, 32, 48, 64, 128, 256

Miss one → scaling artifacts somewhere. Save this ↑

Question for macOS & Windows devs:
How do you generate icons today?

▫️ Manual export
▫️ iconutil / scripts
▫️ Figma / Photoshop
▫️ Dedicated tool
