## Usage
### General Usage
Icons can be downloaded as SVGs directly from [our website](https://simpleicons.org/) - simply click the icon you want, and the download should start automatically.
### CDN Usage
Icons can be served from a CDN such as [JSDelivr](https://www.jsdelivr.com/package/npm/simple-icons) or [Unpkg](https://unpkg.com). Simply use the `simple-icons` npm package and specify a version in the URL like the following:
```html
<img height="32" width="32" src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/simple-icons@latest/icons/[ICON NAME].svg" />
<img height="32" width="32" src="https://unpkg.com/simple-icons@latest/icons/[ICON NAME].svg" />
```
Where `[ICON NAME]` is replaced by the icon name, for example:
```html
<img height="32" width="32" src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/simple-icons@latest/icons/simpleicons.svg" />
<img height="32" width="32" src="https://unpkg.com/simple-icons@latest/icons/simpleicons.svg" />
```
### Node Usage
The icons are also available through our npm package. To install, simply run:
```
$ npm install simple-icons
```
The API can then be used as follows:
```javascript
const simpleIcons = require('simple-icons');
console.log(simpleIcons.get('Simple Icons'));
/*
{
title: 'Simple Icons',
slug: 'simpleicons',
hex: '111111',
source: 'https://simpleicons.org/',
svg: '<svg role="img" viewBox="0 0 24 24" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg">...</svg>',
path: 'M12 12v-1.5c-2.484 ...'
}
*/
```
Alternatively you can import the needed icons individually.
This is useful if you are e.g. compiling your code with [webpack](https://webpack.js.org/) and therefore have to be mindful of your package size:
```javascript
const icon = require('simple-icons/icons/simpleicons');
console.log(icon);
/*
{
title: 'Simple Icons',
slug: 'simpleicons',
hex: '111111',
source: 'https://simpleicons.org/',
svg: '<svg role="img" viewBox="0 0 24 24" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg">...</svg>',
path: 'M12 12v-1.5c-2.484 ...'
}
*/
```
## Third Party Extensions
### WordPress
Icons are also available on WordPress through a simple plugin created by [@tjtaylo](https://github.com/tjtaylo), which you can find [here](https://wordpress.org/plugins/simple-icons/).
