Picking an icon set is less about “most icons” and more about consistency, readability, and maintenance.

What makes an icon pack production-ready

  • Consistent stroke weight and corner radius
  • Coverage for common product actions
  • Active maintenance and stable naming
  • A license your team can use confidently
  1. Lucide — clean and balanced for modern apps
  2. Heroicons — excellent fit for Tailwind-heavy products
  3. Tabler Icons — broad coverage and UI-friendly proportions
  4. Material Symbols — strong default for Material ecosystems
  5. Phosphor — flexible visual weight options
  6. Carbon — enterprise and dashboard-friendly style
  7. Ionicons — practical for mobile-first interfaces
  8. MingCute — broad catalog with contemporary look
  9. Iconoir — minimal and geometric
  10. Remix Icons — versatile UI and brand coverage

How to choose one quickly

  • Product UI: start with Lucide, Heroicons, or Tabler
  • Data-heavy internal tools: Carbon or Tabler
  • Material-based apps: Material Symbols
  • Marketing pages: mix iconography with illustration packs, but keep app UI on one main style
Tip

Use one primary icon set for core product UI. Add a second set only for niche categories like brands, flags, or emoji.

Final recommendation

If your team wants the least risky default: choose Lucide or Tabler, define your size/stroke tokens once, and enforce it in your component library.
