Iconfinder is a successful marketplace where authors sell individual sets. IconShelf is an aggregator that builds a search layer over free, open-source libraries. If you need custom boutique icons, marketplaces are great; if you need professional open-source icons for development, IconShelf is built for that speed.
Iconfinder is a legendary marketplace, but for modern developers, it can feel slow and expensive. An Iconfinder alternative like IconShelf focuses on the sheer volume of high-quality open-source work available today.
We don't sell individual icons because we believe the community has already created incredible libraries that should be accessible to everyone. IconShelf is your window into that world, clean, fast, and free for open-source.
