FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What the Chess icon means and where it's used, then how to install, style, label and license it.
What does the Chess icon mean?
The chess icon represents a game of chess, often used to symbolize strategy, intellect, and competition. It is part of the Material Symbols Light library, designed by Google.
Where is the Chess icon used?
In digital communication, this icon can be used in various contexts, such as gaming platforms, educational websites, and strategy blogs, to convey a sense of intellectual challenge and competition. For instance, it can be used as a logo or icon for a chess website or app.
What does the Chess icon tell users?
From a UX perspective, the chess icon effectively communicates a sense of strategic thinking and problem-solving, making it an intuitive choice for interfaces where users are looking for intellectually stimulating activities or resources. Its simple and recognizable design ensures that users can quickly understand its meaning.
Which library is the Chess icon from?
Chess is one of 15,390 icons in Material Symbols Light, made by Google and released under Apache 2.0. It is drawn on a 24 × 24 grid.
How do I install the Chess icon with the shadcn CLI?
Sign in (it's free), then open Get icon, Install with shadcn CLI, and pick your package manager to copy the command. It adds ChessIcon to components/icons/material-symbols-light-chess.tsx: one file, a size prop (24 by default) and every SVG prop, with no icon package.
How do I use the Chess icon in Next.js or React?
Copy it as React (from Get icon, or the Code section): a typed ChessIcon 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.
How do I use the Chess icon in Vue, Svelte or Angular?
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.
Can my AI agent install the Chess icon for me?
With Pro, the shadcn.io MCP server lets Claude Code, Cursor or any MCP client find the Chess icon, or any of 15,390 Material Symbols Light icons, and install it from a prompt.
How do I change the color of the Chess icon?
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.
How do I change the size of the Chess icon?
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.
Does the Chess icon work in dark mode?
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.
How do I make the Chess icon accessible?
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="Chess", so screen readers say what it does.
Can I pass aria-hidden or aria-label to the Chess icon?
Yes. ChessIcon passes every SVG prop to the svg element, so <ChessIcon aria-hidden="true" /> works, and so do role="img" with aria-label, or a title child, when it carries meaning on its own.
Can I download the Chess icon as SVG or PNG?
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.
Can I use the Chess icon in commercial projects?
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.
Do I have to credit the author of the Chess icon?
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 Material Symbols Light, Google and the license.
Is the Chess icon free?
Yes. Copying and downloading it is free, and the shadcn CLI install only needs a free account.
Which other libraries have the Chess icon?
8 other libraries draw an icon called Chess. The Other libraries section on this page shows each one, so you can compare them and open the one that fits your style.
What tags does the Chess icon have?
Its tags are icon, material, game, strategy and board. Each tag page lists the icons that carry it from every library, which is the quickest way to find a match for Chess in another set.
Does the Chess icon come in other styles?
Material Symbols Light draws many icons in several styles: Outline, Rounded and Sharp next to the default. Open the library and pick a style above the grid to see Chess's siblings in it.
