> [!IMPORTANT]

> As part of a major update, we will be replacing the existing `phosphor-react` package with `@phosphor-icons/react`. We recommend using this new version, as it has improved performance and a significantly smaller bundle size. No APIs have been changed, so drop-in replacement should be straightforward. The legacy package will continue to receive maintenance, but will not be updated with new icons upstream. [Take me to the legacy version ➜](https://github.com/phosphor-icons/react/tree/legacy)



# @phosphor-icons/react






Phosphor is a flexible icon family for interfaces, diagrams, presentations — whatever, really. Explore all our icons at [phosphoricons.com](https://phosphoricons.com).

## Installation



```bash

npm i @phosphor-icons/react

```



## Usage



Simply import the icons you need, and add them anywhere in your render method. Phosphor supports tree-shaking, so your bundle only includes code for the icons you use.



```tsx

import { Horse, Heart, Cube } from "@phosphor-icons/react";



const App = () => {

  return (

    

      

      

      

    

  );

};

```



### Import Performance Optimization



When importing icons during development directly from the main module `@phosphor-icons/react`, some bundlers may eagerly transpile all 9,000+ modules exported by the package. This behavior can drastically increase compilation time.

To avoid transpiling all modules, import individual icons from their specific file paths instead:



```tsx

import { BellSimple } from "@phosphor-icons/react/dist/icons/BellSimple";

```



#### Next.js Specific Optimizations



If you're using Next.js 13+, consider using [optimizePackageImports](https://nextjs.org/docs/app/api-reference/config/next-config-js/optimizePackageImports) in your next.config.js to have Next.js only load the modules that you are actually using. With this approach, you can use `@phosphor-icons/react` directly without causing Next.js to compile all its modules:



```tsx

module.exports = {

  experimental: {

    optimizePackageImports: ["@phosphor-icons/react"],

  },

}

```



### React Server Components and SSR



When using Phosphor Icons in an SSR environment, within a React Server Component, or in any environment that does not permit the use of the Context API ([Next.js](https://nextjs.org/) Server Component, for example), import icons from the `/dist/ssr` submodule:



```tsx

import { Fish } from "@phosphor-icons/react/dist/ssr";



const MyServerComponent = () => {

  return ;

};

```



> [!NOTE]

> These variants do not use React Context, and thus cannot inherit styles from an ancestor `IconContext`.



### Props



Icon components accept all props that you can pass to a normal SVG element, including inline `style` objects, `onClick` handlers, and more. The main way of styling them will usually be with the following props:



- **color?**: `string` – Icon stroke/fill color. Can be any CSS color string, including `hex`, `rgb`, `rgba`, `hsl`, `hsla`, named colors, or the special `currentColor` variable.

- **size?**: `number | string` – Icon height & width. As with standard React elements, this can be a number, or a string with units in `px`, `%`, `em`, `rem`, `pt`, `cm`, `mm`, `in`.

- **weight?**: `"thin" | "light" | "regular" | "bold" | "fill" | "duotone"` – Icon weight/style. Can also be used, for example, to "toggle" an icon's state: a rating component could use Stars with `weight="regular"` to denote an empty star, and `weight="fill"` to denote a filled star.

- **mirrored?**: `boolean` – Flip the icon horizontally. Can be useful in RTL languages where normal icon orientation is not appropriate.

- **alt?**: `string` – Add accessible alt text to an icon.



### Context



Phosphor takes advantage of React Context to make applying a default style to all icons simple. Create an `IconContext.Provider` at the root of the app (or anywhere above the icons in the tree) and pass in a configuration object with props to be applied by default to all icons:



```tsx

import { IconContext, Horse, Heart, Cube } from "@phosphor-icons/react";



const App = () => {

  return (

    

      


         {/* I'm lime-green, 32px, and bold! */}

         {/* Me too! */}

         {/* Me three :) */}

      


    

  );

};

```



You may create multiple Contexts for styling icons differently in separate regions of an application; icons use the nearest Context above them to determine their style.



> [!NOTE]

> The context will also pass any provided SVG props down to icon instances, which can be useful E.G. in adding accessible `aria-label`s, `classNames`, etc.



> [!NOTE]

> React Context is not available in some environments. See [React Server Components and SSR](#react-server-components-and-ssr) for details.



### Composability






Components can accept arbitrary SVG elements as children, so long as they are valid children of the `` element. This can be used to modify an icon with background layers or shapes, filters, animations, and more. The children will be placed _below_ the normal icon contents.



The following will cause the Cube icon to rotate and pulse:



```jsx

const RotatingCube = () => {

  return (

    

      

      

    

  );

};

```



> [!NOTE]

> The coordinate space of slotted elements is relative to the contents of the icon `viewBox`, which is 256x256 square. Only [valid SVG elements](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/SVG/Element#SVG_elements_by_category) will be rendered.



### Imports



You may wish to import all icons at once for use in your project, though depending on your bundler this could prevent tree-shaking and make your app's bundle larger.



```tsx

import * as Icon from "@phosphor-icons/react";



```



For information on using Phosphor Icons in Server Components, see See [React Server Components and SSR](#react-server-components-and-ssr).



### Custom Icons



It is possible to extend Phosphor with your custom icons, taking advantage of the styling and context abstractions used in our library. To create a custom icon, first design your icons on a 256x256 pixel grid, and export them as SVG. For best results, flatten the icon so that you only export assets with `path` elements. Strip any `fill` or `stroke` attributes, as these will be inherited from the wrapper.



Next, create a new React `forwardRef` component, importing the `IconBase` component, as well as the `Icon` and `IconWeight` types from this library. Define a `Map` that maps each icon weight to _the contents of each SVG asset_, effectively removing the wrapping `` element from each. Name your component, and render an ``, passing all props and the ref, as well as the `weights` you defined earlier, as JSX props:



```tsx

import { forwardRef, ReactElement } from "react";

import { Icon, IconBase, IconWeight } from "@phosphor-icons/react";



const weights = new Map([

  ["thin", ],

  ["light", ],

  ["regular", ],

  ["bold", ],

  ["fill", ],

  [

    "duotone",

    <>

      

      

    >,

  ],

]);



const CustomIcon: Icon = forwardRef((props, ref) => (

  

));



CustomIcon.displayName = "CustomIcon";



export default CustomIcon;

```



> [!NOTE]

> If you have multiple child elements, wrap them in a `Fragment`. Typically our `duotone` icons have multiple elements, with the background layer at 20% opacity.



If Custom Icons are intended to be used in [React Server Components](#react-server-components-and-ssr), use `` instead of `` as the render component.
