Using fluentui-icons with Solid & Vite

Microsoft has a great MIT licensed icon library that contains ~1700 unique icons(regular and filled styles for each) here:
https://github.com/microsoft/fluentui-system-icons

There is no library to use for Solid at the moment. This post documents some methods to use these icons.

The first approach involves copying the SVG for each icon and creating components like below. Or maybe process all of SVGs to create the components, and publish a library while you are at it.

interface IFluentIconsProps {
  primaryFill?: string;
  className?: string;
  size?: number;
}

export const Settings24Regular = (iconProps: IFluentIconsProps) => {
  let { primaryFill, className, size } = iconProps;
  if (!size) {
    size = 24;
  }
  return (
    <svg
      width={size}
      height={size}
      viewBox="0 0 24 24"
      xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"
      className={className}
      fill={primaryFill}
    >
      <path
        d="(...removed for brevity...)"
        fill="#212121"
      />
    </svg>
  );
};

---

The second approach involves a quick workaround that doesn't require extra work for each icon.

1- Install:
npm install @fluentui/svg-icons

2- Import the icons you want to use (note "?raw" at the end, that is important for Vite to get this SVG as text)

import Settings24Regular from "@fluentui/svg-icons/icons/settings_24_regular.svg?raw";`

3- You can add some styling with CSS. Here I'm using Solid Styled Components

const SmallIcon = styled("div")`
  svg {
    width: 40px;
    height: 40px;
    fill: rebeccapurple;
  }
  flex-shrink: 0;
`;

4- Use it!

 <SmallIcon innerHTML={Settings24Regular}></SmallIcon>

Let us know if you find a better & easier way! Or if you create a new library for Solid ecosystem 😉
