What Devicon is
Devicon is a collection of icons representing programming languages, design, and development tools. The project README lists more than 150 icons in font and SVG formats, with original, plain, or line styles, color choices, and versions with or without wordmarks. Developers can add the icon font through npm or yarn, a CDN, or downloaded stylesheet and font files. The site describes setting up the font with a stylesheet and an HTML icon element. SVGs can be used through an image element or embedded directly as code, and raw SVG files can be copied into projects. The maker also describes downloading project files for local installation, with instructions for building the website and icons locally or using Gitpod. The repository identifies the license as MIT, and the project says its icons and SVGs are not monetized. Commercial use is allowed, but names, logos, and brands remain the property of their respective owners, so users should follow relevant brand policies. Devicon supports Linux, macOS, Windows, web, and self-hosted use. The website requires JavaScript to be enabled. The project credits Konpa as the original creator and notes support from contributors.
