Health icons for Vue
Every Health icon as a Vue 3 component. Import just the icons you need, in either style, at any size and in any color.
Getting started
Install the package
In your project’s folder, run this command. Using Yarn or pnpm? Run
yarn add @healthicons/vueorpnpm add @healthicons/vueinstead.npm install @healthicons/vueFind an icon
Browse the icons and click one you like. The window that opens shows its Code name, like
BloodBag, with a button to copy it: that’s the name to use in your code.Add it to your page
Import the icon by its name and use it like any other component.
<script setup> import { BloodBag } from '@healthicons/vue'; </script> <template> <BloodBag /> </template>ResultChange how it looks
Icons are outlined and 24 pixels by default, in the color of the text around them. Change any of these with props.
<BloodBag variant="filled" :size="48" color="#6666ff" />Result
Using AI?
Copy our prompt for AI assistants before asking ChatGPT, Claude, Copilot or another assistant to add icons, so it uses the package correctly.
Examples
Next to text
With size="1em" an icon is as tall as the text, and it’s the text’s color unless you give it another.
<button>
<Heart size="1em" /> Save
</button>For screen readers
Icons are hidden from screen readers unless they have a title. Give one to icons that aren’t next to words saying the same thing.
<Heart title="Saved to favorites" />With your own styles
Like any element, icons take a class and style.
<BloodBag
color="#6666ff"
style="padding: 6px; background: #ebebff; border-radius: 50%"
/>Options
Set these as props. Anything else, like a class or style, is added to the icon’s <svg> element.
| Option | Default | What it does |
|---|---|---|
variant | outline | The style: outline or filled |
size | 24 | Width and height, in pixels or any CSS size (like 1.5em). At 24 pixels and smaller, icons that have a version drawn for small sizes use it. |
color | The text color | Any CSS color |
title | None | Shown as a tooltip and read out by screen readers. Without a title (or an aria-label), icons are hidden from screen readers. |
Icon names
The easiest way to get an icon’s name is from the icon itself: open it in the icon library and copy its Code name.
Code names follow a pattern: they’re the filename in PascalCase, so blood-bag is BloodBag and blister-pills_oval_x14 is BlisterPillsOvalX14. A few filenames can’t be written that way, so they use the icon’s title: 0 to 9 are Number0 to Number9, ! is ExclamationPoint and 4x4 is SUV.
If your editor suggests names as you type (most do), start typing what you’re looking for after the { in your import to see the matching icons.
