@hugeicons/angular

Hugeicons Angular rendering library for fast, customizable icons with TypeScript and tree-shaking support

What is Hugeicons?

Hugeicons is a large icon set for modern web and mobile apps. The free package includes 4,600+ Stroke Rounded icons. The Pro package provides 46,000+ icons across 10 styles.

How It Works

This package (@hugeicons/angular) is a rendering library - it provides the HugeiconsIconComponent that displays icons in your Angular app. The icons themselves come from separate icon packages:

• Free icons: @hugeicons/core-free-icons (4,600+ icons)
• Pro icons: @hugeicons-pro/core-* packages (46,000+ icons, requires license)

Key Highlights

• 4,600+ Free Icons: Stroke Rounded set for unlimited personal and commercial projects
• 46,000+ Pro Icons, 10 Styles: Stroke, Solid, Bulk, Duotone, and Twotone families for sharp, rounded, and standard needs with richer variants
• Pixel Perfect Grid: Built on a 24x24 grid for crisp rendering at any size
• Customizable: Easily adjust colors, sizes, and styles to match your design needs
• Tree Shaking Ready: Named exports keep bundles lean in modern bundlers
• Regular Updates: New icons added regularly to keep up with evolving design trends

Usage

The HugeiconsIconComponent is a standalone component. Import it directly in your component:

import { Component } from '@angular/core';
import { HugeiconsIconComponent } from '@hugeicons/angular';
import { SearchIcon } from '@hugeicons/core-free-icons';

@Component({
  selector: 'app-example',
  standalone: true,
  imports: [HugeiconsIconComponent],
  template: `
    <hugeicons-icon
      [icon]="SearchIcon"
      [size]="24"
      color="currentColor"
      [strokeWidth]="1.5"
    />
  `
})
export class ExampleComponent {
  SearchIcon = SearchIcon;
}

NgModule Usage (Legacy)

If you're using NgModules, import the component in your module:

import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';
import { HugeiconsIconComponent } from '@hugeicons/angular';

@NgModule({
  imports: [HugeiconsIconComponent],
  // ...
})
export class AppModule { }

Inputs

Input	Type	Default	Description
icon	IconSvgObject	Required	The main icon to display
altIcon	IconSvgObject	-	Alternative icon for states, interactions, or dynamic icon swapping
showAlt	boolean	false	When true, displays the altIcon instead of the main icon
size	number | string	24	Icon size in pixels
color	string	currentColor	Icon color (CSS color value)
strokeWidth	number	-	Width of the icon strokes
absoluteStrokeWidth	boolean	false	When true, the stroke width will be scaled relative to the icon size
class	string	-	CSS classes to apply to the icon

Examples

Basic Usage

import { Component } from '@angular/core';
import { HugeiconsIconComponent } from '@hugeicons/angular';
import { Video01Icon } from '@hugeicons/core-free-icons';

@Component({
  selector: 'app-basic',
  standalone: true,
  imports: [HugeiconsIconComponent],
  template: `
    <hugeicons-icon [icon]="Video01Icon" />
  `
})
export class BasicComponent {
  Video01Icon = Video01Icon;
}

Custom Size and Color

import { Component } from '@angular/core';
import { HugeiconsIconComponent } from '@hugeicons/angular';
import { Notification02Icon } from '@hugeicons/core-free-icons';

@Component({
  selector: 'app-custom',
  standalone: true,
  imports: [HugeiconsIconComponent],
  template: `
    <hugeicons-icon
      [icon]="Notification02Icon"
      [size]="32"
      color="#FF5733"

Performance

• Tree-shaking: The package is fully tree-shakeable, ensuring only the icons you use are included in your final bundle
• Optimized SVGs: All icons are optimized for size and performance
• Code Splitting: Icons can be easily code-split when using dynamic imports
• OnPush Change Detection: Uses ChangeDetectionStrategy.OnPush for optimal performance

Troubleshooting

Common Issues

1. Icons not showing up?

   • Make sure you've installed both @hugeicons/angular and @hugeicons/core-free-icons
   • Check that HugeiconsIconComponent is imported in your component or module
   • Verify that icon names are correctly imported

2. TypeScript errors?

   • Ensure your tsconfig.json includes the necessary type definitions
   • Check that you're using Angular 17.1+ for signal inputs support

3. Bundle size concerns?

   • Use named imports instead of importing the entire icon set
   • Implement code splitting for different sections of your app

Browser Support

The library supports all modern browsers.
