Swirl Icons

This package contains the Swirl icon set in different formats. To use the icons as Web Components or Angular/React components, please use @getflip/swirl-components.

Installation

# or
npm install @getflip/swirl-icons

Usage

Use as Web Fonts

You can find different (web) font formats in the dist directory. Corresponding .css, .less, .scss and .styl files include the necessary styles to use the icon fonts.

Use SVG symbols

The dist directory includes a swirl-icons.symbol.svg file which defines all icons as SVG symbols. The symbols can be used as follows:

<svg viewBox="0 0 16 16">
  <use xlink:href="#swirl-icons-Add16" />
</svg>

<svg viewBox="0 0 24 24">
  <use xlink:href="#swirl-icons-Add24" />
</svg>

<svg viewBox="0 0 28 28">
  <use xlink:href="#swirl-icons-Add28" />
</svg>

Use the separate SVG files

The icons directory includes all icons as separate files, which can be used via the img tag.

<img src="icons/Add16.svg" alt="" />

Add or update icons

All icon deliverables are generated from the svg files inside packages/swirl-icons/icons. To change, add or delete icons, modify the corresponding svg file.

⚠️ Every icon svg file needs to come in three sizes (16, 24, 28). The files have to be named in PascalCase followed by the size, e.g. AddPhoto16.svg!
