Entypo+ — 411 carefully crafted premium pictograms by Daniel Bruce (CC BY-SA 4.0)

Entypo+ icons

@entypo-icons/* packages wrap these icons into modular and useful components.

Installation

npm install @entypo-icons/core @entypo-icons/utils @entypo-icons/react --save

Usage

For now only react components are available.

import { EntypoIcon, EntypoSprite } from "@entypo-icons/react";

// Somewhere at the top level of application
<App>
  <EntypoSprite />
  ...
</App>

// Just use any icons everywhere
<EntypoIcon size={20} color="green" icon="flower" />

Description and advanced usage

There are several options how to load icons. Each of options has pros and cons described below. Choose the right option for your cases.

EntypoManager

In most cases this is the best option from a user perspective, but it requires granular setup from a developer. EntypoManager builds icons library. Icons from library will be bundled into application and will be preloaded before actual usage at runtime.

✅ Pros

  • Only imported icons will be bundled to application (small bundle size).
  • Icons will be preloaded before usage (user will see icons immediately after application was loaded).

❗️ Cons

  • Need to import each icon separately (so boring).
  • In case of using a large number (say hundreds) of icons application bundle size will grow.
// Import each icon separately
import iconCake from "@entypo-icons/core/icons/cake";
import iconFlower from "@entypo-icons/core/icons/flower";
import { EntypoManager } from "@entypo-icons/utils";
import { EntypoIcon } from "@entypo-icons/react";

// Add them to library.
// It's ok to call `addIcons` multiple times at any time at any places
EntypoManager.addIcons(iconCake, iconFlower);

...
// Use icons from library everywhere
<EntypoIcon size={20} color="green" icon="flower" />

Asynchronous <EntypoSprite /> (remote sprite)

This component will load all icons (as one sprite file) at once from remote host.

✅ Pros

  • All icons will be available (useful, no need to import each icon separately).
  • Icons won't bundled into application (zero-cost from bundle size perspective).

❗️ Cons

  • It will take some time to load sprite by HTTP (user will see nothing before icons are loaded).
import { EntypoIcon, EntypoSprite } from "@entypo-icons/react";

// Somewhere at the top level of application
<App>
  {/* will load sprite from package bundle from unpkg.com */}
  <EntypoSprite />
  {/* also it's possible to provide `url` to load from your place */}
  <EntypoSprite url="/static/entypo-sprite.svg" />
  ...
</App>

// Just use any icons everywhere
...
<EntypoIcon size={20} color="green" icon="flower" />
...

Synchronous <EntypoSprite /> (bundled sprite)

This component will bundle all icons into application.

✅ Pros

  • All icons will be available (useful, no need to import each icon separately).
  • Icons will be preloaded before usage (user will see icons immediately after application was loaded).

❗️ Cons

  • Bundle will contain all icons (~60 Kb gzipped).
import sprite from "@entypo-icons/core/sprite";
import { EntypoIcon, EntypoSprite } from "@entypo-icons/react";

// Somewhere at the top level of application
<App>
  <EntypoSprite html={sprite} />
  ...
</App>

// Just use any icons everywhere
...
<EntypoIcon size={20} color="green" icon="flower" />
...
