Uno Fluent UI Assets Open Source Font
An icon font for the Fluent design system. Uno FluentUI Assets is intended to be a drop-in replacement for Microsoft's Segoe MDL2 Assets font for use with Uno Platform, WinUI and UWP apps.
Icon fonts
This repository includes two icon fonts:
- Uno Fluent Icons - matches the Windows 11 iconography style
- Uno MDL2 Assets - matches the Windows 10 iconography style
Both fonts use the same font family name and file names to make it possible to easily swap them in place.

If you have an existing Uno Platform application using older version of the font and want to update to the latest, two steps are needed:
- Find all files with the name
uno-fluentui-assets.ttfand replace them with the same file from the updated icon font. - Inside of the WebAssembly project find
Fonts.cssfile and replace it with the one provided by updated icon font.
