Twitter

This icon represents Twitter (now X), the real-time social platform that revolutionized public conversation and news dissemination. The bird logo became one of the internet's most recognized symbols before the platform's rebranding, representing instant communication and global dialogue.

In social authentication and sharing interfaces, you'll see this icon enabling Twitter login and tweet sharing across countless applications. It appears in news platforms and content sites, facilitating real-time content distribution and conversation participation through Twitter's influential public discourse network.

From a social communication perspective, the Twitter icon communicates more than just social presence - it specifically indicates real-time engagement, public discourse participation, and instant news access. This recognition helps users understand Twitter's unique role in breaking news and live conversation.

Twitter is one of 45 icons in Brandico, made by Fontello and released under CC BY SA. It is drawn on a 748.681 × 1000 grid.

Sign in (it's free), then open Get icon, Install with shadcn CLI, and pick your package manager to copy the command. It adds TwitterIcon to components/icons/brandico-twitter.tsx: one file, a size prop (24 by default) and every SVG prop, with no icon package.

Copy it as React (from Get icon, or the Code section): a typed TwitterIcon component you paste into your project, with no package to install. Only the icons you import reach your bundle. It works in Next.js and any React app.

Open Get icon, then Copy as code, and pick Vue, Svelte, Angular, Solid or Preact; the Code section shows each one too. Every version is one self-contained component with the SVG inside, and SVG and data URL copies are there for plain HTML and CSS.

With Pro, the shadcn.io MCP server lets Claude Code, Cursor or any MCP client find the Twitter icon, or any of 45 Brandico icons, and install it from a prompt.

It's drawn in currentColor, so it takes the text color wherever you use it: a class like text-primary recolors it. To bake a color in, set one in Customize before you copy.

Set width and height on the component, or a class like size-6. It's drawn on a 748.681 × 1000 grid, so it stays sharp at any size. Customize also sets the size it exports at, its padding and rotation.

Yes. It follows the text color, so with text-foreground (or any theme token) it changes with your light and dark themes. The icon is a vector, so it needs no separate dark asset.

Next to a visible label it's decoration: add aria-hidden="true" so screen readers skip it. Standing alone, as in an icon button, give the button a name instead, like aria-label="Twitter", so screen readers say what it does.

Yes. TwitterIcon passes every SVG prop to the svg element, so <TwitterIcon aria-hidden="true" /> works, and so do role="img" with aria-label, or a title child, when it carries meaning on its own.

Yes. Open Get icon, then Download file: SVG for code or design tools like Figma; PNG, WebP or JPEG at 512px; or an ICO favicon with 16, 32 and 48px inside. Each one uses what you set in Customize.

Yes, with conditions: CC BY SA asks you to credit the author (Fontello), and icons you change must use the same license. The full terms are in the license, linked on this page.

Yes. CC BY SA asks you to credit Fontello, and icons you change must be shared under the same license.

Yes. Copying and downloading it is free, and the shadcn CLI install only needs a free account.
