FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What the Skull icon means and where it's used, then how to install, style, label and license it.
The skull icon represents a symbol often associated with death, danger, or warning. It is used in various contexts to indicate risk, hazard, or caution. The skull icon has a long history in heraldry and has been adopted in modern design for its clear and immediate communication of peril.
In software applications, the skull icon appears in contexts where safety, security, or risk assessment is crucial. For example, in finance and investment platforms, a skull icon might be used to warn users about high-risk investments. Similarly, in health and safety applications, it could be used to alert users to potential hazards.
From a UX perspective, the skull icon communicates a strong message of caution or danger. Its presence immediately captures the user's attention, guiding them to take necessary precautions or to be aware of potential risks. The icon's design and context help users understand the level of risk or danger associated with a particular action or situation.
Skull is one of 15,862 icons in Material Symbols, made by Google and released under Apache 2.0. It is drawn on a 24 × 24 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 SkullIcon to components/icons/material-symbols-skull.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 SkullIcon 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 Skull icon, or any of 15,862 Material Symbols 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.
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="Skull", so screen readers say what it does.
Yes. SkullIcon passes every SVG prop to the svg element, so <SkullIcon 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 Material Symbols, Google and the license.
Yes. Copying and downloading it is free, and the shadcn CLI install only needs a free account.
