Formed in 2009, the Archive Team (not to be confused with the archive.org Archive-It Team) is a rogue archivist collective dedicated to saving copies of rapidly dying or deleted websites for the sake of history and digital heritage. The group is 100% composed of volunteers and interested parties, and has expanded into a large amount of related projects for saving online and digital history.

Quick Start
Start with this CodePen Template to begin prototyping with Feather in the browser.
Or copy and paste the following code snippet into a blank html file.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<title></title>
<script src="https://unpkg.com/feather-icons/dist/feather.min.js"></script>
<body>
<!-- example icon -->
<i data-feather="circle"></i>
<script>
feather.replace()
</script>
</body>
</html>Usage
At its core, Feather is a collection of SVG files. This means that you can use Feather icons in all the same ways you can use SVGs (e.g. img, background-image, inline, object, embed, iframe). Here's a helpful article detailing the many ways SVGs can be used on the web: SVG on the Web – Implementation Options
The following are additional ways you can use Feather.
Client-side
1. Install
Note: If you intend to use Feather with a CDN, you can skip this installation step.
Install with npm.
npm install feather-icons --save
Or just copy feather.js or feather.min.js into your project directory. You don't need both feather.js and feather.min.js.
2. Include
Include feather.js or feather.min.js with a <script> tag. These files are located in the dist directory of the npm package.
<script src="path/to/dist/feather.js"></script>Or load the script from a CDN provider.
<!-- choose one -->
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/feather-icons/dist/feather.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://unpkg.com/feather-icons/dist/feather.min.js"></script>After including the script, feather will be available as a global variable.
3. Use
To use an icon on your page, add a data-feather attribute with the icon name to an element.
<i data-feather="circle"></i>See the complete list of icons at feathericons.com.
4. Replace
Call the feather.replace() method.
<script>
feather.replace()
</script>All elements that have a data-feather attribute will be replaced with SVG markup corresponding to their data-feather attribute value. See the API Reference for more information about feather.replace().
Node
1. Install
Install with npm.
npm install feather-icons --save
2. Require
const feather = require('feather-icons')3. Use
feather.icons.x

// }
// }
feather.icons.x.toSvg()
// <svg class="feather feather-x" ...><line ... /><line ... /></svg>
feather.icons.x.toSvg({ class: 'foo bar', 'stroke-width': 1, color: 'red' })
// <svg class="feather feather-x foo bar" stroke-width="1" color="red" ...><line ... /><line ... /></svg>See the API Reference for more information about the available properties and methods of the feather object.
API Reference
feather.icons

Returns an SVG string.
Parameters
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
attrs (optional) |
Object | Key-value pairs in the attrs object will be mapped to HTML attributes on the <svg> tag (e.g. { foo: 'bar' } maps to foo="bar"). All default attributes on the <svg> tag can be overridden with the attrs object. |
Usage
feather.icons.circle.toSvg()
// '<svg class="feather feather-circle" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="24" height="24" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round"><circle cx="12" cy="12" r="10"></circle></svg>'
feather.icons.circle.toSvg({ 'stroke-width': 1 })
// '<svg class="feather feather-circle" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="24" height="24" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="1" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round"><circle cx="12" cy="12" r="10"></circle></svg>'
feather.icons.circle.toSvg({ class: 'foo bar' })
// '<svg class="feather feather-circle foo bar" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="24" height="24" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round"><circle cx="12" cy="12" r="10"></circle></svg>'feather.replace([attrs])
Replaces all elements that have a data-feather attribute with SVG markup corresponding to the element's data-feather attribute value.
Parameters
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
attrs (optional) |
Object | Key-value pairs in the attrs object will be mapped to HTML attributes on the <svg> tag (e.g. { foo: 'bar' } maps to foo="bar"). All default attributes on the <svg> tag can be overridden with the attrs object. |
Usage
Note:
feather.replace()only works in a browser environment.
Simple usage:
<i data-feather="circle"></i>
<!--
<i> will be replaced with:
<svg class="feather feather-circle" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="24" height="24" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round"><circle cx="12" cy="12" r="10"></circle></svg>
-->
<script>
feather.replace()
</script>You can pass feather.replace() an attrs object:
<i data-feather="circle"></i>
<!--
<i> will be replaced with:
<svg class="feather feather-circle foo bar" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="24" height="24" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="1" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round"><circle cx="12" cy="12" r="10"></circle></svg>
-->
<script>
feather.replace({ class: 'foo bar', 'stroke-width': 1 })
</script>All attributes on the placeholder element (i.e. <i>) will be copied to the <svg> tag:
<i data-feather="circle" id="my-circle" class="foo bar" stroke-width="1"></i>
<!--
<i> will be replaced with:
<svg id="my-circle" class="feather feather-circle foo bar" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="24" height="24" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="1" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round"><circle cx="12" cy="12" r="10"></circle></svg>
-->
<script>
feather.replace()
</script>(DEPRECATED) feather.toSvg(name, [attrs])
Note:
feather.toSvg()is deprecated. Please usefeather.icons[name].toSvg()instead.
Returns an SVG string.
Parameters
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
name |
string | Icon name |
attrs (optional) |
Object | Key-value pairs in the attrs object will be mapped to HTML attributes on the <svg> tag (e.g. { foo: 'bar' } maps to foo="bar"). All default attributes on the <svg> tag can be overridden with the attrs object. |
