About Material Design Iconic Font

Material Design Iconic Font is an open-source SVG icon set with 777 icons created by MDI Community. Every icon is free to use under the Open Font License license — fine for personal projects, side projects, and most commercial work. Always check the upstream license for edge cases.

How to use Material Design Iconic Font icons

The fastest way is to embed an icon as an <img> from the Iconify CDN — no install, no build step, no JavaScript required.

Inline HTML

<img src="https://api.iconify.design/zmdi/alarm-snooze.svg" width="24" height="24" alt="alarm-snooze icon" />

CSS background

.icon-alarm-snooze {
  background: url('https://api.iconify.design/zmdi/alarm-snooze.svg') center / contain no-repeat;
  width: 24px;
  height: 24px;
}

React (with @iconify/react)

import { Icon } from '@iconify/react';

<Icon icon="zmdi:alarm-snooze" width="24" />

Recolouring Material Design Iconic Font icons

Material Design Iconic Font icons use currentColor, so changing colour is a one-line CSS rule. Set color on the parent element and the icon adopts it. This makes the set easy to theme for light mode, dark mode, and brand colour accents.

Search engine–safe usage

Always include a meaningful alt attribute on <img> tags or an aria-label on inline SVGs. For purely decorative icons (where text already conveys the meaning), use alt="" so screen readers skip them.

License & attribution

Material Design Iconic Font is distributed under the Open Font License license. Most permissive licenses (MIT, Apache 2.0, CC0) don’t require attribution in shipped binaries, but it’s considered good practice to credit the icon set in your project’s docs or about page.
