Frequently asked questions
What the Github 16 icon means and where it's used, then how to install, style, label and license it.
The GitHub icon represents the popular web-based platform for version control and collaboration on software development projects. GitHub is a central hub for developers to share and manage code, collaborate on projects, and build communities around software development. Founded in 2008, GitHub has become an essential tool for the tech industry, enabling developers to work together on complex projects and share knowledge.
GitHub icons are commonly used in software development tools, tech blogs, and online platforms that integrate with GitHub's services. For example, GitHub's logo appears on the GitHub website, GitHub Desktop, and various GitHub-integrated development environments like Visual Studio Code.
From a UX perspective, the GitHub icon communicates a sense of community, collaboration, and openness. When users see the GitHub icon, they understand that they can access and contribute to open-source projects, connect with other developers, and leverage shared knowledge.
Github 16 is one of 852 icons in Qlementine Icons, made by Olivier Cléro and released under MIT. It is drawn on a 16 × 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 Github16Icon to components/icons/qlementine-icons-github-16.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 Github16Icon 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 Github 16 icon, or any of 852 Qlementine Icons 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 16 × 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="Github 16", so screen readers say what it does.
Yes. Github16Icon passes every SVG prop to the svg element, so <Github16Icon 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 Qlementine Icons, Olivier Cléro and the license.
Yes. Copying and downloading it is free, and the shadcn CLI install only needs a free account.
Its tags are development, software, tech, collaboration, open-source and version-control. Each tag page lists the icons that carry it from every library, which is the quickest way to find a match for Github 16 in another set.
