Kreative Vexillo is a repository of images of flags in various formats, sizes, and aspect ratios, as well as the XML files used to describe them and the computer programs used to generate them.
Flags are named according to ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 country codes. Flags are present for all officially assigned codes as well as many exceptionally reserved, transitionally reserved, and user-assigned codes. Many other flags are included, among them ICS and NATO signal flags, pride flags, and flags for constructed languages.
Kreative Vexillo contains over 600 flags. For comparison, the My'file flag icon set contains 300 flags and the original FamFamFam flag icon set contains 247 flags.
The flag images and the XML files used to describe them are placed in the public domain, free to use for any purpose with no requirement for attribution, except where otherwise noted within the XML file. The source code and binaries used to produce them, as well as any other computer programs in this repository including digital font files, are released under the Mozilla Public License.
Open the Kreative Vexillo web app to browse and download flag images.

                                                                                   |

vexillo vieworvexview- View.kvxxfiles in a window.vexillo exportorvexport- Convert.kvxxfiles to SVG or PNG in any size.vexillo emojiorvexmoji- Convert.kvxxfiles to SFD, PNG, and SVG files used to compile an emoji font.vexillo infoorvexinfo- Print information about.kvxxfiles.vexillo calcorvexcalc- Calculator.base64encodeandbase64decode- Convert files to and from Base64 (used in.kvxxand SVG files).ascii85encodeandascii85decode- Convert files to and from ASCII85 (used in.kvxxand PostScript files).
Any of these commands can be run with --help for information on their parameters.
The .kvxx files containing descriptions of flags.
Run the makeflags script to generate SVG and PNG files from the .kvxx files. The resulting output directory will contain the generated images in the directory structure described above.
