react-icons v5.3.0
React Icons
Include popular icons in your React projects easily with react-icons
, which utilizes ES6 imports that allows you to include only the icons that your project is using.
Installation (for standard modern project)
yarn add react-icons
# or
npm install react-icons --save
example usage
import { FaBeer } from "react-icons/fa";
function Question() {
return (
<h3>
Lets go for a <FaBeer />?
</h3>
);
}
View the documentation for further usage examples and how to use icons from other packages. NOTE: each Icon package has it's own subfolder under react-icons
you import from.
For example, to use an icon from Material Design, your import would be: import { ICON_NAME } from 'react-icons/md';
Installation (for meteorjs, gatsbyjs, etc)
Note This option has not had a new release for some time. More info https://github.com/react-icons/react-icons/issues/593
If your project grows in size, this option is available. This method has the trade-off that it takes a long time to install the package.
yarn add @react-icons/all-files
# or
npm install @react-icons/all-files --save
example usage
import { FaBeer } from "@react-icons/all-files/fa/FaBeer";
function Question() {
return (
<h3>
Lets go for a <FaBeer />?
</h3>
);
}
Icons
You can add more icons by submitting pull requests or creating issues.
Configuration
You can configure react-icons props using React Context API.
Requires React 16.3 or higher.
import { IconContext } from "react-icons";
<IconContext.Provider value={{ color: "blue", className: "global-class-name" }}>
<div>
<FaFolder />
</div>
</IconContext.Provider>;
Key | Default | Notes |
---|---|---|
color | undefined (inherit) | |
size | 1em | |
className | undefined | |
style | undefined | Can overwrite size and color |
attr | undefined | Overwritten by other attributes |
title | undefined | Icon description for accessibility |
Migrating from version 2 -> 3
Change import style
Import path has changed. You need to rewrite from the old style.
// OLD IMPORT STYLE
import FaBeer from "react-icons/lib/fa/beer";
function Question() {
return (
<h3>
Lets go for a <FaBeer />?
</h3>
);
}
// NEW IMPORT STYLE
import { FaBeer } from "react-icons/fa";
function Question() {
return (
<h3>
Lets go for a <FaBeer />?
</h3>
);
}

Why React SVG components instead of fonts?
SVG is supported by all major browsers. With react-icons
, you can serve only the needed icons instead of one big font file to the users, helping you to recognize which icons are used in your project.
