About this icon

Use the Code icon

The Code icon from Boxicons fits naturally in document management systems, admin panels, file explorers, CMS dashboards, cloud storage UIs, and PDF viewers. Its outline style makes it ideal for app navigation bars, toolbar buttons, form labels, and UI controls where clarity at 16–24px is critical.

Open it in IconStash to set stroke color via presets or a custom hex value, choose an exact pixel size (16–512px), control stroke width (0.1–3px), and preview against dark, light, or checkered backgrounds before downloading.

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 Code icon stays pixel-perfect at 16px, 24px, 48px, and any large marketing size.

Design & UX integration

Aesthetic characteristics

Boxicons gives Code a slightly chunkier, more rounded treatment than most outline sets, and ships Regular, Solid and Logos variants. The Logos subset — brand marks redrawn to match the UI icons — makes it a practical single-dependency choice for marketing sites.

UX best practices

In file explorers, document lists and CMS dashboards, put the Code icon immediately to the left of the filename so the eye scans one straight line. If it triggers a destructive action, keep a confirmation step — a delete or archive glyph is too easy to hit by accident in a dense list.

Use in your project

React / npm — Boxicons

npm install react-icons

import { BxCode } from 'react-icons/bx';

// JSX usage:
<BxCode size={24} />

Copy the SVG markup directly from the IconStash editor to use the Code icon without any npm package — paste it into HTML, JSX, or a design tool.
