Free SVG to JSX Converter - Transform SVG for React Components
Instantly convert SVG code to React/JSX components with TypeScript support. Handles attribute conversion, adds props spreading, and generates ready-to-use component files.
How to Convert SVG to JSX
- Paste your SVG code into the input field
- Configure options (TypeScript, component name, etc.)
- Copy or download the generated React component
What Gets Converted
Our converter automatically transforms SVG attributes to their JSX equivalents:
| SVG Attribute | JSX Equivalent |
|---|---|
class | className |
stroke-width | strokeWidth |
stroke-linecap | strokeLinecap |
stroke-linejoin | strokeLinejoin |
fill-rule | fillRule |
clip-rule | clipRule |
clip-path | clipPath |
font-family | fontFamily |
font-size | fontSize |
text-anchor | textAnchor |
xlink:href | xlinkHref |
Why Use SVG to JSX Conversion?
React Compatibility
React requires JSX syntax where HTML attributes use camelCase instead of kebab-case. Direct SVG pasting causes errors.
TypeScript Support
Our converter generates properly typed components with React.SVGProps<SVGSVGElement> for full IntelliSense.
Props Spreading
Generated components accept and spread props like className, style, onClick, making them flexible.
Code Organization
Turn inline SVGs into reusable components that can be imported across your project.
Conversion Options Explained
TypeScript (.tsx)
Generates TypeScript code with proper type definitions. Recommended for TypeScript projects.
React.memo
Wraps the component in React.memo() to prevent unnecessary re-renders when props haven't changed.
Named Export
Use export { IconName } instead of export default IconName. Useful for barrel exports.
Remove Dimensions
Strips width and height attributes, letting you control size via CSS or props.
Example Conversion
Input SVG
<svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="24" height="24" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round">
<circle cx="12" cy="12" r="10"/>
<path d="M12 16v-4"/>
<path d="M12 8h.01"/>
</svg>
Output React Component
import React from 'react';
const InfoIcon = (props: React.SVGProps<SVGSVGElement>) => {
return (
<svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="24" height="24" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" strokeWidth="2" strokeLinecap="round" strokeLinejoin="round" {...props}>
<circle cx="12" cy="12" r="10"/>
<path d="M12 16v-4"/>
<path d="M12 8h.01"/>
</svg>
);
};
export default InfoIcon;
Using Converted Icons in React
Basic Usage
import InfoIcon from './icons/InfoIcon';
function MyComponent() {
return <InfoIcon className="w-6 h-6 text-blue-500" />;
}
With Custom Props
<InfoIcon
width={32}
height={32}
stroke="red"
onClick={() => console.log('clicked')}
/>
Styling with Tailwind
<InfoIcon className="w-8 h-8 text-primary hover:text-primary/80 transition-colors" />
Best Practices for SVG Icons
1. Use currentColor
Set fill="currentColor" or stroke="currentColor" to inherit color from parent CSS.
2. Remove Hardcoded Dimensions
Let CSS control sizing for responsive designs.
3. Optimize SVG First
Use SVGO or a similar tool to remove unnecessary metadata before conversion.
4. Consistent Naming
Use descriptive, consistent names like IconName or NameIcon.
5. Organize in a Directory
Keep all icons in an icons/ or components/icons/ folder with an index file for barrel exports.
Icon Library Integration
Creating an Icon Library
// icons/index.ts
export { default as HomeIcon } from './HomeIcon';
export { default as SettingsIcon } from './SettingsIcon';
export { default as UserIcon } from './UserIcon';
Usage
import { HomeIcon, SettingsIcon, UserIcon } from './icons';
Frequently Asked Questions
Why can't I paste SVG directly in React?
JSX uses camelCase for attributes (e.g., strokeWidth), while SVG uses kebab-case (e.g., stroke-width). React will show warnings or ignore incorrect attributes.
Does this work with Next.js?
Yes! The generated components work with any React-based framework including Next.js, Gatsby, and Remix.
Can I use this for inline SVGs?
Yes. You can also paste the JSX directly into components without creating separate files.
How do I make icons accessible?
Add aria-label or role="img" with a <title> element for screen readers:
<svg role="img" aria-labelledby="title">
<title id="title">Info icon</title>
...
</svg>
What about animation?
Converted SVGs work with CSS animations, Framer Motion, and other animation libraries just like regular SVGs.
SVG Optimization Tips
Remove Unnecessary Elements
Delete metadata, comments, and empty groups before conversion.
Simplify Paths
Tools like SVGO can merge paths and reduce complexity.
Use viewBox
Always include viewBox for proper scaling, even if you set width/height.
