Sizing

Icons inherit the current text size by default. You can customize with Tailwind classes:
<!-- Using Tailwind size classes -->
<flux:icon icon="heart" class="w-4 h-4" />
<flux:icon icon="heart" class="w-6 h-6" />
<flux:icon icon="heart" class="w-8 h-8" />

Colors

Icons inherit the current text color:
<div class="text-red-500">
    <flux:icon icon="heart" />
</div>

<!-- Or apply directly -->
<flux:icon icon="heart" class="text-blue-500" />

Usage in Components

Many Flux components accept icon names directly:

Buttons

<flux:button icon="plus">Add Item</flux:button>
<flux:button icon:leading="check">Confirm</flux:button>
<flux:button icon:trailing="arrow-right">Next</flux:button>

Inputs

<flux:input icon="magnifying-glass" placeholder="Search..." />
<flux:input icon:leading="envelope" placeholder="Email" />
<flux:input icon:trailing="information-circle" />

Badges

<flux:badge icon="check-circle" color="green">Verified</flux:badge>

Callouts

<flux:callout icon="information-circle" variant="warning">
    <flux:callout.text>Important information</flux:callout.text>
</flux:callout>

Loading Indicator

A special animated loading icon:
<flux:icon icon="loading" />
This icon automatically animates and is used internally by components with loading states.

Custom Icons

You can pass custom SVG content using slots:
<flux:icon>
    <svg><!-- your custom SVG --></svg>
</flux:icon>

Icon Composition

Layer multiple icons or add badges:
<div class="relative inline-flex">
    <flux:icon icon="bell" class="w-6 h-6" />
    <span class="absolute -top-1 -right-1 flex h-3 w-3">
        <span class="animate-ping absolute inline-flex h-full w-full rounded-full bg-red-400 opacity-75"></span>
        <span class="relative inline-flex rounded-full h-3 w-3 bg-red-500"></span>
    </span>
</div>

Best Practices

  1. Be Consistent: Stick to one variant throughout your application for visual consistency
  2. Use Semantic Icons: Choose icons that clearly represent their function
  3. Provide Context: Use aria-label on icon-only buttons
  4. Size Appropriately: Match icon size to surrounding text

Accessibility

  • Icons are decorative by default (aria-hidden="true")
  • When icons convey meaning, add appropriate ARIA labels
  • For interactive elements, ensure proper labeling:
<flux:button icon="trash" aria-label="Delete item" />
Icon names use kebab-case (e.g., chevron-down, not chevronDown). Refer to Heroicons.com for exact naming.
