Programming Code

The 'programming-code' icon represents code or programming, a set of instructions used to communicate with computers. This icon is often associated with software development, coding, and text editing. Code is a fundamental component of software applications, enabling developers to create, modify, and interact with digital content.

In software development, code is used to create a wide range of applications, from simple scripts to complex operating systems. Developers use code editors, integrated development environments (IDEs), and text editors to write, test, and debug code. The code icon is often used in coding tools, text editors, and software development interfaces.

From a UX perspective, the code icon communicates the ability to create, modify, or interact with digital content. It represents a fundamental aspect of software development and enables users to understand the underlying structure and functionality of digital applications.

Programming Code is one of 300 icons in Streamline Block, made by Streamline and released under CC BY 4.0. 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 ProgrammingCodeIcon to components/icons/streamline-block-programming-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 ProgrammingCodeIcon 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 Programming Code icon, or any of 300 Streamline Block 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="Programming Code", so screen readers say what it does.

Yes. ProgrammingCodeIcon passes every SVG prop to the svg element, so <ProgrammingCodeIcon 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, with credit: CC BY 4.0 asks you to credit the author (Streamline) where you use the icons. The full terms are in the license, linked on this page.

Yes. CC BY 4.0 asks you to credit the author where you use the icons, for example "Icons by Streamline, CC BY 4.0" on an about or credits page.

Yes. Copying and downloading it is free, and the shadcn CLI install only needs a free account.

Its tags are development, software, text, coding, editor and syntax. Each tag page lists the icons that carry it from every library, which is the quickest way to find a match for Programming Code in another set.
