Research direction
First, review the existing codebase to identify all icons currently used and where they are defined (likely in components/ or a dedicated icons file). Then, visit icones.netlify.app to curate a consistent icon set that matches the app's needs and generate a font file. Next, create a new Icon component that accepts an icon name and renders the corresponding icon from the font. Finally, replace all hardcoded icon references with the new component, ensuring all icons render correctly. Check the repository's existing styling conventions and component patterns to maintain consistency.
