Frequently asked questions
What the Delete icon means and where it's used, then how to install, style, label and license it.
The delete icon represents a delete or remove action, often used to indicate the deletion of an item or element. This icon is part of the Feather Icons library, designed by Cole Bemis. It is commonly used in software applications to represent removal or cancellation concepts. The icon's design is simple, yet effective in conveying its intended meaning.
In real-world applications, the delete icon appears in various software and platforms, such as file management systems, data editing tools, or messaging applications. Its usage is widespread in user interface design to facilitate user understanding of actions and options.
From a UX perspective, the delete icon communicates a clear and concise message to users about the available actions or options related to removal or cancellation. It helps users understand the functionality of a particular element or button, making it easier for them to interact with the interface. The icon's simplicity and consistency with established design patterns ensure that users can quickly recognize and understand its meaning.
Delete is one of 286 icons in Feather Icons, made by Cole Bemis and released under MIT. It is drawn on a 24 × 24 grid with a 2 stroke.
Sign in (it's free), then open Get icon, Install with shadcn CLI, and pick your package manager to copy the command. It adds DeleteIcon to components/icons/feather-delete.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 DeleteIcon 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 Delete icon, or any of 286 Feather Icons 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 24 × 24 grid, so it stays sharp at any size. Customize also sets the size it exports at, its padding and rotation, and its stroke.
Delete is a line icon drawn with a stroke width of 2. Change it in Customize before you copy, or pass strokeWidth to the installed component when all of its strokes share one width.
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="Delete", so screen readers say what it does.
Yes. DeleteIcon passes every SVG prop to the svg element, so <DeleteIcon 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. MIT allows commercial use; keep the license notice when you ship the icons' source files. The full terms are in the license, linked on this page.
No visible credit is required: MIT only asks that you keep the license notice if you ship the icons' source files. Icons installed with the shadcn CLI already start with a comment naming Feather Icons, Cole Bemis and the license.
Yes. Copying and downloading it is free, and the shadcn CLI install only needs a free account.
