# Icons

Guidance and suggestions for using external icon libraries with Bootstrap.

Bootstrap doesn’t include an icon library by default, but we have a handful of recommendations for you to choose from. While most icon sets include multiple file formats, we prefer SVG implementations for their improved accessibility and vector support.

## Preferred

We’ve tested and used these icon sets ourselves.

- Iconic
- Octicons

## More options

While we haven’t tried these out, they do look promising and provide multiple formats—including SVG.

- Bytesize
- Google Material icons
- Ionicons
- Feather
- Dripicons
- Ikons
- Glyph
