React Icons Animated is a remarkable collection of animated icons designed specifically for React applications. Developed by the talented frontend-joe, this package is built with TypeScript to ensure reliability and maintainability. These icons are optimized for dark contrast environments, so the stroke style cannot be modified, but they excel particularly when you require a burger menu icon.
The resulting output will resemble the following: The issue above arises when the icon is rendered twice, but only one is animated. One approach to resolving this is to disable , as outlined in the documentation. React's renders each component twice in order to detect and report any potential issues within your application. However, it's generally not recommended to disable , as it may result in undetected bugs and errors.
Here's an example of how the output will appear: You have the flexibility to customize the icon using the available properties, which can be found here. For instance, by setting the property hover= {true}, the animation will only run when you hover over the icon. Additionally, you can configure the icon to listen to various events such as load, play, pause, and more. Explore the available properties to enhance the behavior and interactivity of your icon.
While the documentation suggests using the style property with a string, we encountered an error that prompted us to explore alternative options: In addition, you have the ability to modify the triggers using the trigger property, enabling you to associate specific events such as click or loop with the icon. For further optimization option, you can clone this repository and sort through the code.
In this article, we’ll walk you through using Feather-inspired animated icon libraries in React applications and guide you through setting up a React project, adding and customizing icons using various libraries, and handling common issues like double rendering.
