@chanphiromsok I am trying to do the same, but the official documentation is a bit confusing for me at the moment. Can you please share step by step process how to added material symbols here and the templates used by you.

create font section https://github.com/oblador/react-native-vector-icons/blob/master/docs/CREATE_FONT_PACKAGE.md

• you have to config yo-rc.json (there are many example in each package I still not very clear with every configuration)
• you have to run 'yo generate-react-native-vector-icon' https://www.npmjs.com/package/generator-react-native-vector-icons
  in your custom font directory the package will generate folders

@chanphiromsok can you provide the official source of glyphmap json file. In official repo we have codepoints instead of json.
