# @carbon/icons-react
> React components for icons in digital and software products using the Carbon
> Design System
## Getting started
To install `@carbon/icons-react` in your project, you will need to run the
following command using [npm](https://www.npmjs.com/):
```bash
npm install -S @carbon/icons-react
```
If you prefer [Yarn](https://yarnpkg.com/en/), use the following command
instead:
```bash
yarn add @carbon/icons-react
```
## Usage
You can import an icon component intoo your project by referring to its name:
```jsx
import { Add } from '@carbon/icons-react';
```
Each icon supports a `size` prop and supports the 16px, 20px, 24px, and 32px
sizes by default. The default size for each icon is 16px.
```jsx
import { Add } from '@carbon/icons-react';
function ExampleComponent() {
return <Add size={32} />;
}
```
We also provide CommonJS and UMD files in the `lib` and `umd` directories,
respectively.
To import using CommonJS, you can do the following:
```js
const { Add } = require('@carbon/icons-react');
```
_Note: if you would like to find the import path for an icon, you can reference
our
[Icon Library](https://www.carbondesignsystem.com/guidelines/iconography/library)_
### Icon fill
All icons from the library support being styled by the `fill` property. You can
change the color of an icon by passing in a custom class name that sets this
property (preferred), or by passing in an inline style. For example:
```css
// CSS custom class name to set the fill of the icon to `rebeccapurple`
svg.my-custom-class {
fill: rebeccapurple;
}
```
```jsx
import { Add } from '@carbon/icons-react';
function MyComponent() {
return (
<button>
<Add aria-label="Add" className="my-custom-class" />
</button>
);
}
```
#### Two-tone icons
Certain icons in the library support two distinct fill colors. You can target
the inner path by using the `[data-icon-path="inner-path"]` attribute selector.
For example:
```scss
// CSS custom class name to set the fill of the icon to `yellow`
svg.my-custom-class {
fill: yellow;
}
// Use the `data-icon-path` attribute selector to target the inner path
// where we want to set the fill to `black`. We also set `opacity` to `1` so
// that this inner-path is visible.
svg.my-custom-class [data-icon-path='inner-path'] {
fill: black;
opacity: 1;
}
```
```jsx
import { WarningFilled } from '@carbon/icons-react';
function MyComponent() {
return <WarningFilled aria-label="Add" className="my-custom-class" />;
}
```
### Focus and `aria-label`
By default, the icon components from `@carbon/icons-react` are treated as
decorative content. This means that we set `aria-hidden="true"` unless certain
props are passed to the component.
If you would like the icon to be announced by a screen reader, you can supply an
`aria-label` or `aria-labelledby`. For example:
```jsx
import { Add } from '@carbon/icons-react';
function MyComponent() {
return (
<button>
<Add aria-label="Add" />
</button>
);
}
```
Doing this will add the appropriate `role` to the `<svg>` node, as well.
If you would like the `<svg>` to receive focus, you will need to pass in a
`tabIndex` value. For example:
```jsx
import { Add } from '@carbon/icons-react';
function MyComponent() {
return <Add aria-label="Add" tabIndex="0" />;
}
```
Including `tabIndex` and `aria-label` (or `aria-labelledby`) will set the
corresponding `tabindex` on the underlying `<svg>` and verify support in older
browsers like Internet Explorer 11 by setting `focusable` to `true`.
