Grimacing

The grimacing icon represents a facial expression, specifically a grimacing face, which is often used to convey a sense of discomfort, pain, or disgust. Facial expressions are an important part of human communication and can convey a range of emotions and feelings. The grimacing icon is often used in the context of digital communication, social media, and online interaction.

In real-world applications, the grimacing icon may appear in software or platforms related to digital communication, social media, or online interaction, such as messaging apps, social media platforms, or online forums. For example, a messaging app might use the grimacing icon to represent a user's emotional response to a message.

From a UX perspective, the grimacing icon communicates a sense of emotional response, helping users understand that the functionality or feature is related to expressing emotions or reactions. The icon's design and color scheme can also evoke a sense of empathy and understanding, which is important for digital communication platforms.

Grimacing is one of 1,034 icons in Firefox OS Emoji, made by Mozilla and released under Apache 2.0. It is drawn on a 512 × 512 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 GrimacingIcon to components/icons/fxemoji-grimacing.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 GrimacingIcon 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 Grimacing icon, or any of 1,034 Firefox OS Emoji icons, and install it from a prompt.

It's multicolor, so it keeps its own colors.

Set width and height on the component, or a class like size-6. It's drawn on a 512 × 512 grid, so it stays sharp at any size. Customize also sets the size it exports at, its padding and rotation.

Yes. It keeps its own colors in light and dark mode, so check it against both backgrounds. 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="Grimacing", so screen readers say what it does.

Yes. GrimacingIcon passes every SVG prop to the svg element, so <GrimacingIcon 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. Apache 2.0 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: Apache 2.0 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 Firefox OS Emoji, Mozilla and the license.

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