  - Wizard to generate config, you will be prompted for any missing key
- - icons-config.json is automatically added to .gitignore
+ - icons-config.json is automatically added to .gitignore if it exists
  - Directory to save the icons is created if it doesn't exist
  - Icons are deleted from local directory when fetching new 
  - Icons with the same name are marked with `${iconName}-duplicate-name.svg` so you can easily spot them and fix figma file
