About React Icons
React Icons is a package that gives React developers access to icons from many popular icon sets through one library. Each icon is a React component you can place in any page or component.
What it does
The package bundles icons from more than 30 sets, such as Font Awesome, Material Design, Heroicons, Tabler and Lucide. You import only the icons you use, so an app does not carry the full collection. Icons are rendered as React components and can be sized and coloured with normal props and CSS.
Key features
- Icons from more than 30 popular sets
- Import single icons to keep bundles small
- Each icon is a plain React component
- Works with standard modern React projects
- Full-collection package for older build setups
Who it's for
React developers who need icons for buttons, menus, dashboards or landing pages and want to pick from several styles without installing many separate packages. It is also useful for prototypes, where a quick search across sets saves time.
Pricing and good to know
The package is installed from npm and is a popular choice in React projects. The icons come from several different projects, so check the terms of the set you choose before shipping it in a commercial product. The full-collection package takes a long time to install, so the single-icon import method is usually the better choice.
