Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/lipis/flag-icons/issues/704

Is there a possibility to only include the flags which I need through npm and not all the country flags, I want to save the storage.
Or maybe its a good idea just to download from the resource from lipis you provided ? what do you say ?

You could use PurgeCSS to get rid of unused flags in your build step.

Picking up on this question. How exactly would I do that? As far as I understand it, I have to run PurgeCSS on the flag-icon.min.css but this I have to do before building the application so the svg are not created.

As a background, I am using a service worker to cache all the flag icons so I need to remove all the unused flag icons before deployment.
