Trenta.io was open source and community grown on GitHub. If, for example, Trenta Icons didn’t have a specific icon for an app, you could reference our documentation and contribute new icons. The design guidelines for Trenta Icons covered several types of icons, including round, rectangular, and status icons. These guidelines ensured a consistent and visually appealing design language across Trenta OS and its icons.
