Lucide is an open-source icon toolkit that offers a growing collection of clean, consistent SVG icons designed for use in web, mobile, and design projects. Originally created as a community-driven fork of Feather Icons, Lucide builds upon Feather’s minimalist design philosophy while expanding the icon set and maintaining strict design standards.

The library provides over 1,500+ icons, each designed on a consistent grid with uniform stroke and proportions to ensure visual harmony across interfaces. Icons are distributed as optimized SVGs and are available through packages for major frontend frameworks such as React, Vue, Svelte, Angular, and others, making integration straightforward for developers.

Lucide solves the need for a scalable and cohesive icon system by combining simplicity, flexibility, and performance. Its icons are lightweight and tree-shakable, meaning applications only include the icons they actually use, reducing bundle size. Additionally, the icons are highly customizable, allowing developers to adjust properties like size, color, and stroke width to match design requirements.

The project is maintained by an active open-source community, with contributions continually adding new icons and improvements. It is released under the permissive ISC license, allowing free use in both personal and commercial projects.

Key features include:

• Large and growing collection of 1,500+ SVG icons
• Consistent design system with strict visual guidelines
• Fully customizable (size, color, stroke width)
• Tree-shakable packages for optimized performance
• Support for major frameworks and package managers

Common use cases include:

• Designing user interfaces
• Building web and mobile applications
• Creating design systems
• Prototyping layouts
• Embedding scalable icons in frontend projects

Lucide is a community-maintained open-source project, originally created by Eric Fennis and supported by contributors worldwide.
