What about having the original material icons' names added as aliases? ex. more_vert => mdi-more-vert

I noticed you are using a list of names and font codes to generate the pseudo elements' content map. In many occasions i found useful to have sass variables referring to unicode characters so they can be used in other scss files.

ex. $mdi-var-more-vert: '\e5d4'; for the original material design icons

even if your solution saves a lot of space, with a simple script (i used php) a variables file and a pseudo elements icon map file could be generated and this would help with code hinting when using scss variable names.

kind regards

Completely overlooked this issue (sorry I get a lot of GitHub emails and never checked this project for issues since most post them over on the other channel).

Hopefully you found the documentation on getting started. It has a code snippet that does exactly that.

Yea, that won't fix the auto-complete in your SASS files, but should make things still pretty readable.

content: mdi('account');

In the next release I will most likely be including the mdi function in the _extras.scss file.
