It's a fork of Feather Icons that kept going after Feather stopped updating. Drop-in packages for React, Vue, Svelte, Angular, and vanilla JS.

Fully free under ISC license. Every icon, every framework package, every future update, free. No premium tier, no pro icons behind a paywall. Tree-shakeable, so you only bundle the icons you actually use.

The catch: Lucide's style is minimal and outline-based. If you need filled icons, duotone variants, or a wider style range, Tabler Icons or Heroicons might be a better fit. And at 1,500+ icons, it's comprehensive but not exhaustive. Niche categories (finance, medical) have thinner coverage than Font Awesome's 30,000+ icons (though Font Awesome gates most behind their $99/year Pro tier).

Free vs Self-Hosted vs Paid

fully free

Fully open source under ISC license. No paid tier, no premium icons.

Zero cost. Compare to:

  • Font Awesome Pro: $99/year for the full 30K icon set
  • Phosphor Icons: Free (similar quality and scope)
  • Heroicons: Free but smaller set (~300 icons)
  • Tabler Icons: Free, ~5,400 icons

Lucide wins on the combination of quality, consistency, framework support, and active maintenance. The star velocity (207/week) tells you the community is growing fast.

Free forever. No paid tier. 1,500+ icons with framework packages for everything.
