Every icon includes core metadata such as a name, hex color, categories, and license. Where present, icons also include a website URL, guideline links, and up to 7 SVG variants.

## Icon Data Schema

```typescript
interface IconEntry {
  slug: string;            // kebab-case identifier (e.g. "github")
  title: string;           // display name (e.g. "GitHub")
  aliases: string[];       // alternative names
  hex: string;             // brand color without # (e.g. "181717")
  categories: string[];    // tags (e.g. ["Software", "Platform"])
  variants: {
    default: string;       // always present - URL path to SVG
    mono?: string;         // single color variant
    light?: string;        // white variant for dark backgrounds
    dark?: string;         // dark variant for light backgrounds

}
```

## API Reference

thesvg ships as a fully static site. There is no dynamic search endpoint. Fetch the manifest once and filter client-side.

Base URL: `https://thesvg.org`

### Direct SVG (CDN)
```
GET /icons/{slug}/{variant}.svg
```
Returns raw SVG with `image/svg+xml` content type, served from Cloudflare CDN.

Example: `https://thesvg.org/icons/github/default.svg`

### Icon Manifest
```
GET /api/registry.json
```
Returns the full manifest as `{ total, icons: [...] }`. Each icon has: `slug`, `title`, `aliases`, `categories`, `hex`, `url`, `license`, `variants` (array of variant keys). Use this to power search, filtering, and listing.

### Categories
```
GET /api/categories.json
```
Returns all categories with icon counts as `{ categories: [{ name, count }, ...] }`.

### jsDelivr Mirror

For high-traffic apps, use jsDelivr instead of `thesvg.org` directly:
```
https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/glincker/thesvg@main/src/data/icons.json
https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/glincker/thesvg@main/public/icons/{slug}/{variant}.svg
```
`src/data/icons.json` is the source-of-truth manifest with all per-icon fields including `dateAdded` and `collection`.

### Roadmap

A gated, token-based API with relevance search and webhooks is planned at `api.thesvg.org`.

## Framework Examples

### React (CDN approach - recommended for performance)
```tsx
function BrandIcon({ slug, size = 24 }: { slug: string; size?: number }) {
  return (
    <img
      src={`https://thesvg.org/icons/${slug}/default.svg`}
      width={size}
      height={size}
      alt={slug}
    />
  );
}
```

### React (Component approach)
```tsx
import { Github } from "@thesvg/react";

<Github width={24} height={24} className="text-gray-900" />
```

### Vue
```vue
<template>
  <img :src="`https://thesvg.org/icons/${slug}/default.svg`" :width="size" :alt="slug" />
</template>
```

### HTML with dark mode
```html
<picture>
  <source media="(prefers-color-scheme: dark)" srcset="https://thesvg.org/icons/github/light.svg" />
  <img src="https://thesvg.org/icons/github/dark.svg" alt="GitHub" width="24" />
</picture>
```

### Markdown
```markdown
![GitHub](https://thesvg.org/icons/github/default.svg)
```
