This library is a work in progress, involving hundreds of hours of methodical work. Progress towards an initial version is slow but steady. Watch this repository on GitHub to know when the first release becomes available.

flown is a collection of world flags. The library includes SVG files designed for use in digital applications where quality and visual consistency is important.

This project is more than a simple collection of images from external sources. Each flag in the set is meticulously redrawn, using a standardised colour palette, consistent (but unofficial) aspect ratios and a carefully chosen subset of SVG tags. Detailed elements, such as emblems and typography, are simplified to limit file sizes to fit within strict budgets. Where necessary, these elements are carefully updated to improve quality.

You can read more about the approach and rationale behind these modifications. Suggestions to improve the collection are encouraged. If you find an issue with any of the flags, please create a bug report.
