Hello HN. I created this set of SVG flag icons with small file sizes for an analytics dashboard project. I started this mostly for fun, many icon libraries I looked at had file sizes that were larger than necessary and some had details that looked off for complex flags. I’d seen lots of implementations of simplified flags across the web and wanted to create a set of my own and share it so that others can use them too.

The individual flags were drawn in illustrator, using a pixel grid to make the coordinates whole numbers and keep the size down. Claude code was used for much of the grunt work like fetching the reference images and arranging them into folders. There are a few that I may tweak slightly as well as some territories currently represented by their parent country’s flag that I may add.
