Install Monicon with Next.js

Setting up Monicon with Next.js is a straightforward process. This guide will walk you through the installation and configuration steps to get started with Monicon in your Next.js project.

Install

To get started, you’ll need to install the necessary dependencies for Monicon. In your project directory, run the following command to install the dependencies.

npm i @monicon/react @monicon/webpack

Now you should install the development dependency @iconify/json for the icon sets. This package provides a comprehensive collection of icons that can be easily integrated into your project.

npm i -D @iconify/json
 
# or specific icon sets
npm i -D @iconify-json/mdi @iconify-json/feather

Configure Next

If you want to use Monicon with Next.js, you’ll need to configure Next.js.

next.config.js
const { MoniconPlugin } = require("@monicon/webpack");
 
const nextConfig = {
  webpack: (config) => {
    config.plugins.push(
      new MoniconPlugin({
        icons: [
          "mdi:home",
          "feather:activity",
          "logos:active-campaign",
          "lucide:badge-check",
        ],
      })
    );
 
    return config;
  },
};
 
module.exports = nextConfig;

The icons array in the monicon plugin configuration specifies the icon sets you want to use in your project. You can add more icon sets as needed.

For a complete list of available icon sets, refer to the Icones website.
