What does "Open Source" do for graphical assets like icons?

I'm more interested in the license, how can I use them, are you using a Creative Commons derivative or a custom license?

https://mynaui.com/legal

   > You are prohibited from the following uses:
   > - Distributing or publishing the Item or its assets online.
   > - Placing Item design files into an End Product as-is.

So can I put these on a web page or not? How about an executable application?

The mynaui.com/legal is for a separate product, not the Icons.

MynaUI Icons is MIT Licensed: https://github.com/praveenjuge/mynaui-icons/blob/main/LICENS...

I will fix this miscommunication shortly!

Do open source licences apply to SVGs? They are technically icon written in code.

I may be a bit naive, as it just occurred to me.

Interesting question. I mean, one can claim that .png files are also written in code?..

[echoangle]

A png is about as much code as a compiled binary. They aren’t code, they might be the result of some code being compiled, but open source licenses normally define the source as the format most useful for editing, which probably is the input that a png icon is generated from, not the png itself.

OK sure, bad example. A Photoshop .psd file then.

I am not entirely familiar with the .psd format. However, a rule of thumb is that if you can open an image file in a text editor, see readable code, and modifying the code affects the image, then the image is definitely written in code.

TIL that Excel saves files as source code, as xlsx is XML
