GitLab Iconography: MVC meets visual design

What this post added

This post details the iterative update of GitLab's iconography library using a Minimum Viable Change (MVC) approach. It covers the process of updating icon documentation, establishing design guidelines, embracing constraints like the 16x16 pixel grid and 2-pixel stroke weight, and the batch-based review and merge request process for icon updates. It also highlights early results and next steps, including reducing FontAwesome icon usage, introducing new grids, and conducting further usability testing.
