About this icon
Use the Heart icon
Icons in the outline style — like Heart — are designed for app navigation bars, toolbar buttons, form labels, and UI controls where clarity at 16–24px is critical. Use it across health and fitness apps, medical record systems, wellness dashboards, telemedicine platforms, and patient portals for a consistent, professional look.
IconStash's editor lets you fine-tune color, size, and stroke width in real time, then export in the format that fits your workflow: SVG, PNG, JSX, or CSS background-mask.
Export formats
Copy clean SVG vectors with one click, generate custom-size PNG files from 16px to 512px, export JSX/React components ready to paste into your project, or use the icon as a CSS background-mask for flexible theming.
All exports are based on the same editable vector — so the Heart icon stays pixel-perfect at 16px, 24px, 48px, and any large marketing size.
Design & UX integration
Aesthetic characteristics
Octicons is GitHub's own icon set, so Heart is tuned for the density of GitHub's interface — small default sizes, tight shapes, and silhouettes that stay identifiable at 16px. That makes it a reliable baseline for developer tooling, code review screens and anything code-adjacent.
UX best practices
In health, fitness and clinical interfaces, the Heart icon usually sits beside a number, so align it to the same baseline as the metric and give it room. Avoid encoding severity in colour alone: red-only status fails for colour-blind users and reads as alarm fatigue in long-term tracking screens.
Use in your project
React / npm — Octicons
npm install @primer/octicons-react
import { HeartIcon } from '@primer/octicons-react';
// JSX usage:
<HeartIcon size={24} />Copy the SVG markup directly from the IconStash editor to use the Heart icon without any npm package — paste it into HTML, JSX, or a design tool.
