What are @tabler/icons's main functionalities?
Importing Icons
You can import specific icons from the @tabler/icons package to use in your project. This allows you to include only the icons you need, reducing the overall bundle size.
import { IconHome, IconUser } from '@tabler/icons';
Using Icons in React
The icons can be easily used within React components. This example demonstrates how to include the 'IconHome' icon in a simple React component.
import { IconHome } from '@tabler/icons';
function App() {
return (
<div>
<IconHome />

The icons are highly customizable. You can change their size and color by passing props to the icon component. This example shows how to set the size to 48 pixels and the color to red.

<IconHome size={48} color="red" />
