The ThinkGeo StyleJSON Schemai llustrated “GettingStarted” Guide will guide you through the process of studying what is ThinkGeo StylJSON Schema, and how to use it in your desktop, web, or mobile mapping applications.
ThinkGeo’s free map icons web font gives you a complete set of vector-based, easily-customizable icons for the most common and popular points of interest. Delivered as a web font with full cross-browser compatibility, these icons will bring your maps and other GIS projects to life with ease. Client-side rendering means you have complete control over the size and color of each icon, along with the ability to apply CSS effects like rotation, animation, outlines and more.
Our map icon font is designed as a complete icon family, with more than 250 common point-of-interest (POI) icons that include parks, traffic, public services, landmarks and more, and is provided free of charge under the Apache 2.0 license.
It's very easy to get started. You can start from getting the samples from GitHub, or start from creating a new application in your Visual Studio.

o It can be used as font-awesome, Material Design Icons, Google Material Design Icons etc. Just like a regular web font for icons. You can use it in any html pages, even in JavaScript libraries. You can get the docs on how to use it from these pages as well, for example, https://dev.materialdesignicons.com/getting-started .
o It’s available on ThinkGeo CDN and NPM. Similar stuffs and detailed description can be available from MapBox, see https://www.mapbox.com/maki-icons/ . You can edit it in the website, then download it for local use. That’s the reason why I would like add a page in https://thinkgeo.com
ii. Doc: we need one doc page on wiki
iii. It’s open sourced on GitHub here: https://github.com/ThinkGeo/VectorMap-icons
• Good to have: attach the css class name of each icon in the page.
