Place vector icons anywhere using an icon font.

This component is using the fantastic Font Awesome icon font, a project by Dave Gandy. Altogether Font Awesome provides more than 300 symbols and glyphs for web-related actions. Icon fonts are great, because they enable you to easily change color, size and more via CSS. They are scalable vector graphics, which means that they look great on high-resolution displays.


Usage

To apply this component, add any .uk-icon-* class to an <i> or <span> element. Et voilà, you have a vector icon, which inherits size and color just like your text does.

Examples

  • Uses the .uk-icon-cog class
  • Uses the .uk-icon-user class
  • Uses the .uk-icon-home class
  • An icon in a link

A button with an icon

Markup

<!-- This is an icon -->
<i class="uk-icon-cog"></i>

<!-- This is an icon in a link -->
<a href=""><i class="uk-icon-cog"></i> ...</a>

More examples

This example shows a group of buttons from the Button component with icons inside each button.

Example





Button dropdown

This example shows a button which is split into a standard action to the left and a dropdown toggle on the right, using the Dropdown component.

Example


Blockquotes

This example shows a blockquote from the Base component with a large quote icon. It also uses the .uk-align-left class from the Utility component.

Example

The <blockquote> element defines a long quotation which also creates a new block by inserting white space before and after the blockquote element.


Size modifiers

Add the .uk-icon-small, .uk-icon-medium or .uk-icon-large class to an icon to make the it larger.

  • This is the default size.
  • This icon uses the .uk-icon-small class.
  • This icon uses the .uk-icon-medium class.
  • This icon uses the .uk-icon-large class.

Spin modifier

Add the .uk-icon-spin class to create animated spinning icons.

  • Spinner icon for loading content …
  • Refresh icon for refreshing content …

Icon button

Use the modifier .uk-icon-button class to create an icon button, which can be used perfectly for social icons.

Example




Markup

<a href="" class="uk-icon-button uk-icon-github"></a>
