## Bootstrap Icons
|
|
|
|
While you won't find a built-in icon library in Bootstrap, our separate [Bootstrap Icons]({{ site.icons }}) projects is a growing set of open source SVGs you can use. While they're designed first and foremost to work with our components and documentation, you can use them in any project.
|
|
|
|
<a href="{{ site.icons }}" class="btn btn-bd-primary">Get Bootstrap Icons</a>
|
|
|
|
<img class="img-fluid mt-3 mx-auto" srcset="{{ site.baseurl }}/docs/{{ site.docs_version }}/assets/img/bootstrap-icons.png,
|
|
{{ site.baseurl }}/docs/{{ site.docs_version }}/assets/img/bootstrap-icons@2x.png 2x"
|
|
src="{{ site.baseurl }}/docs/{{ site.docs_version }}/assets/img/bootstrap-icons.png"

## Additional icon sets
|
|
|
|
In addition to Bootstrap Icons, we have a handful of alternative icon libraries for you to choose from. While most icon sets include multiple file formats, we prefer SVG implementations for their improved accessibility and vector support.
|
|
|
|
### Preferred
|
|
|
|
We've tested and used these icon sets ourselves.
|
|
|
|
- [Font Awesome](https://fontawesome.com/)
|
|
- [Feather](https://feathericons.com/)
|
|
- [Octicons](https://octicons.github.com/)
|
|
|
|
### More
|
|
|
|
While we haven't tried these out, they do look promising and provide multiple formats—including SVG.
