What's the proper way to add standard Android icons to the drawables folder?

Question

What's the proper way to add standard Android icons to the drawables folder? Should I use Material icons from a website and download them as SVG and convert them to vector such as XML? In Android, you can add them from some asset menu which I cannot find in Xamarin.

Hello,

Welcome to our Microsoft Q&A platform!

Do you mean the Material Icons ?

Take one icon for example,when we want to download it, we just need to choose the image color we want :

After we download it ,there are several different folders for different density screens just as follows:

So, according to our requirement, we can put it into our different drawable folders in our app. And android OS select the image it self by checking the compatible device and its resolution.
