Are you writing Windows 10 Apps already? I'm currently updating one app from Windows 8.1 Store to the Universal Windows Platform, which of course means that some redesign is required, too. If you ever have developed a Windows Store App, you probably know the Segoe UI Symbol font because it offers a lot of icons that you can use for e.g. buttons in the app bar. The benefit is clear: you do not have to create these icons by yourself, they fit within the overall design of Windows and you can scale them however you want because it's a font – it's always rendered crisp and sharp.
