Sign in (it's free), then open Get icon, Install with shadcn CLI, and pick your package manager to copy the command. It adds BlackCatIcon to components/icons/openmoji-black-cat.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 BlackCatIcon 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 Black Cat icon, or any of 4,481 OpenMoji icons, and install it from a prompt.
