Frequently asked questions
What the Exclamation Circle icon means and where it's used, then how to install, style, label and license it.
The exclamation-circle icon represents a warning or alert symbol, often used to draw attention to important information or potential issues. It is commonly used in various contexts, including software, websites, and documentation. The exclamation mark within a circle is a widely recognized symbol for caution or warning.
In software and websites, the exclamation-circle icon is often used to indicate errors, warnings, or notifications. For example, it may appear in a dialog box to alert the user of a potential problem or to provide additional information. The icon is also used in documentation and user manuals to highlight important information or potential hazards.
From a UX perspective, the exclamation-circle icon communicates a sense of caution or warning to the user. It helps users understand that they need to pay attention to the information being presented and take necessary actions. The icon can also be used to guide users through a process or to provide feedback on their actions.
Exclamation Circle is one of 385 icons in HeroIcons v1 Outline, made by Refactoring UI Inc 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 ExclamationCircleIcon to components/icons/heroicons-outline-exclamation-circle.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 ExclamationCircleIcon 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 Exclamation Circle icon, or any of 385 HeroIcons v1 Outline 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.
Exclamation Circle 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="Exclamation Circle", so screen readers say what it does.
Yes. ExclamationCircleIcon passes every SVG prop to the svg element, so <ExclamationCircleIcon 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 HeroIcons v1 Outline, Refactoring UI Inc and the license.
Yes. Copying and downloading it is free, and the shadcn CLI install only needs a free account.
