This repository welcomes contributions and corrections. Before submitting a pull request, ensure that you respect these guidelines for SVGs:
|
||
|
||
- Include the SVG namespace declaration `xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"`. This is not required if the SVG is included inline on HTML5 web pages.
|
||
- Include a descriptive `<title>` element for accessibility. The `<title>` must have an ID of the format `simpleicon-<iconname>-title` - for example, `<title id="simpleicons-github-title">GitHub icon</title>`.
|
||
- Add `aria-labelledby="simpleicon-<iconname>-title"` and `role="img"` to the `<svg>` element to improve screen reader support.
|
||
- Use a `viewBox` of 24 by 24, following [Google’s Material Design guidelines for system icons](https://material.io/guidelines/style/icons.html#icons-system-icons).
|
||
- Ensure that all paths and strokes have been converted to fills.
|
||
- Ensure your SVG is monochromatic. Remove all fill colors so that icons default to black.
|
||
- Minify your SVG after exporting it. We recommend using [SVGO](https://github.com/svg/svgo) or [SVGOMG](https://jakearchibald.github.io/svgomg/) to automate this process.
|
||
|
||
## JSON data for simpleicons.org
|
||
|
||
In addition to following the guidelines for SVGs, list new icons in the `_data/simple-icons.json` file. Each icon in the array has three required values:
|
||
|
||
- The `title` of the new SVG.
|
||
- A `hex` color value that matches the brand or logo's main accent color. (Without the `#` pound symbol.)
|
||
- The `source` URL of the logo being used.
|
||
|
||
Here is the object for the GitHub logo as an example:
|
||
|
||
```json
|
||
{
|
||
"title": "GitHub",
|
||
"hex": "181717",
|
||
"source": "https://github.com/logos"
|
||
},
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## SVG example
|
||
|
||
Before minification, your SVG should look follow the template below:
|
||
|
||
```svg
|
||
<svg aria-labelledby="title" role="img" viewBox="0 0 24 24" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg">
|
||
<title>[BRAND] icon</title>
|
||
<path [VALUE] />
|
||
</svg>
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
While the parent `<svg>` element can sometimes contain other attributes, the attributes listed above are the only necessary ones. You can remove safely remove attributes like `width` and `height`, or clean them using a tool like [SVGO](https://github.com/svg/svgo) or [SVGOMG](https://jakearchibald.github.io/svgomg/).
|
||
|
||
Here is the un-minified contents of the GitHub icon, for reference:
|
||
|
||
```svg
|
||
<svg aria-labelledby="title" role="img" viewBox="0 0 24 24" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" fill-rule="evenodd" clip-rule="evenodd" stroke-linejoin="round" stroke-miterlimit="1.414">

||
