FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What the File Code icon means and where it's used, then how to install, style, label and license it.
The file-code icon represents a file containing code or a program. It originates from the Octicons library, which is used for GitHub-related projects. This icon signifies that a file contains machine-readable code.
In software development, this icon can be used to indicate files that contain code, such as source code files or scripts. It can also be used in data analysis or scientific computing to represent files containing code.
From a UX perspective, the file-code icon communicates technical complexity and code density. It helps users quickly identify files that require specialized software or expertise to open or edit.
File Code is one of 901 icons in Octicons, made by GitHub and released under MIT. It is drawn on a 12 × 16 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 FileCodeIcon to components/icons/octicon-file-code.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 FileCodeIcon 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 File Code icon, or any of 901 Octicons 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 12 × 16 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="File Code", so screen readers say what it does.
Yes. FileCodeIcon passes every SVG prop to the svg element, so <FileCodeIcon 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 Octicons, GitHub and the license.
Yes. Copying and downloading it is free, and the shadcn CLI install only needs a free account.

Its tags are file, software, technology, programming and code. Each tag page lists the icons that carry it from every library, which is the quickest way to find a match for File Code in another set.
Octicons draws many icons in several styles: Fill next to the default. Open the library and pick a style above the grid to see File Code's siblings in it.
