Props

Name Type Default Description
type String null This sets the size and viewbox to match the recommended size for the icon pack specified.
path String | Array null An SVG path(s) to render as an icon.
fa-icon Object null A FontAwesome icon object as imported from one of their available SVG libraries.
size Number | String 24 The width and height of the SVG element.
viewbox String "0 0 24 24" The viewBox of the SVG element.
flip String null One of "horizontal", "vertical", or "both". Flips the icon in the specified direction(s).
rotate Number | String 0deg Rotates the icon by the specified value. Can be any valid CSS angle value.
no-namespace Boolean false Don't render the xml namespace attribute on the SVG element.
no-styles Boolean false Don't render any SVG/Path styles (handle externally), disables flip and rotate.
no-dimensions Boolean false Don't render the width or height attributes.

Styling

By default, the icon will inherit the current font colour of the container it is placed within. You can easily provide a specific colour using an inline style on the element (style="color: red") or can target the tag as normal with CSS rules.

Accessibility

You should make use of aria attributes to improve accessibility for users that use screen reading technology. You can use aria-labelledby to create a link between an icon and its label. A descriptive aria-label can be used to allow screen readers to announce an icon if there is no visual label to accompany it.
