Blade Icons is a package to easily make use of SVG icons in your Laravel Blade views. This week, creator Dries Vints released the first stable version (1.0.0), which is a huge milestone for this project!
I'm very happy to say that Blade Icons has received its first major release. It brings some much requested features as well as caching support.

Enjoy! ✨#Laravel
With the release of 1.0 stable, here are some features added in the stable release since we covered the Blade UI kit launch of 0.1:
- Caching - new caching command to cache icons
- Default Icon Component - generic component to render blade icons
- Filesystem Disks - load icons from different filesystems
- Fallback icons - define which icon to render (per set) when the icon cannot be found
- Multiple Icon Paths - you can configure and organize icons in multiple paths
- Default Attributes - define some attributes added to every icon
A much-requested feature for this package is a default icon component. Here's an example from the docs:
{{-- Camera icon component --}}<x-icon-camera/> {{-- Default icon component rendering the camera component --}}<x-icon name="camera"/>Along with Blade Icons 1.0.0, Blade Heroicons and Blade Zondicons were received a stable 1.0.0 release. This package requires Laravel 8 and either PHP 7.4 or 8.0.
