devicon-react-svg

devicon-react-svg is an implementation of the Devicons icon library (which contains the logos of various popular programming languages, frameworks and design and development tools) for React.

devicon-react-svg returns a functional React component that, when passed the name of a Devicon as the icon prop, will render it as an inline SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) image.

Installation

To install with npm:

npm install "devicon-react-svg" --save

To install with Yarn:

yarn add "devicon-react-svg"

---

Usage

Import the default export from devicon-react-svg and use it in your JSX as you would any other React component. It accepts the prop icon, which should be the name of the Devicon as a string.

import React from 'react';
import ReactDOM from 'react-dom';
import DevIcon from "devicon-react-svg";

const Demo = props => {
    return (<DevIcon icon="react" />);
}

ReactDOM.render(<Demo/>, document.getElementById('root'));

---

You can style the SVG component by passing in a style prop or a viewBox prop, like this...

const devIconStyle = {
    fill: "thistle",
    width: "150px",
};

const Demo = props => {
    return (
        <DevIcon icon="react" style={devIconStyle} viewBox="0 0 32 32"/>
        );
}

or by using a library like styled-components...

import styled from "styled-components";

const StyledIcon = styled(DevIcon)`
    fill: thistle;
    width: 150px;
`;

const Demo = props => {
    return (<StyledIcon icon="css3" />);
}

---

Additional exports

A list of the icon names accepted by the component can be found in the Devicons cheatsheet, or can be returned as an array by using the package's iconList export. devicon-react-svg also exports the RandomIcon component to display a randomly chosen icon.

import DevIcon, {iconList, RandomIcon} from "devicon-react-svg";

console.log(`Here is a list of icon names used by this component: ${iconList}`);

const Demo = props => {
    return (<RandomIcon />);
}

Credits

devicon-react-svg was made by Dennis Hodges, a Javascript developer.

Thank you to Theodore Vorillas, who created the font and icon collection that this component is based on, and which is the source of all of the svg path data used in this package.

You can find his original icon repository here: Devicons.
