Include popular icons in your React projects easly with ```react-icons```, which utilizes ES6 imports that allows you to include only the icons that your project is using.
## Installation
```bash
npm install react-icons --save
```
## Usage
```jsx
import { FaBeer } from 'react-icons/fa';
class Question extends React.Component {
render() {
return <h3> Lets go for a <FaBeer />? </h3>
}
}
```
[View the documentation](https://react-icons.netlify.com) 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';`

## Configuration
You can configure react-icons props using [React context API](https://reactjs.org/docs/context.html).
requirement React 16.3 or higher.
```jsx
import { IconContext } from "react-icons";
<IconContext.Provider value={{ color: "blue", className: "global-class-name" }}>
<div>
<FaFolder />
</div>
</IconContext.Provider>
```
key|default|memo
---|---|---
color|undefined(inherit)|
size|1em|
className|undefined|
style|undefined|can overwrite size and color
attr|undefined|overwritten by other attributes
## Migrate from version 2 -> 3
### Change import style
Import path has changed. You need to rewrite from the old style.
```jsx
// OLD IMPORT STYLE
import FaBeer from 'react-icons/lib/fa/beer';
class Question extends React.Component {
render() {
return <h3> Lets go for a <FaBeer />? </h3>
}
}
```
```jsx
// NEW IMPORT STYLE
import { FaBeer } from 'react-icons/fa';
class Question extends React.Component {
render() {
return <h3> Lets go for a <FaBeer />? </h3>
}
}
```
Ending up with a large JS bundle? Check out [this issue](https://github.com/react-icons/react-icons/issues/154).
### Adjustment CSS
From version 3, `vertical-align: middle` is not automatically given.
Please use IconContext to specify className or style.
example for global styling
```tsx
<IconContext.Provider value={{ style: { verticalAlign: 'middle' } }}>
```
example for give global className
```tsx
// app.tsx
<IconContext.Provider value={{ className: 'react-icons' }}>
// app.css
.react-icons {
vertical-align: middle;
}
```
### TypeScript native support
Dependencies on `@types/react-icons` can be deleted.
```bash
npm remove @types/react-icons
```

## Tips
### SVG
Svg is [supported](http://caniuse.com/#search=svg) by all major browsers.
### Why ES6 import and not fonts
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.
