SVG Logos vs Simple Icons
SVG Logos ships the color mark. Simple Icons ships one color you can recolor. Both files are CC0, which is not a trademark license.
- Use SVG Logos when the colored product or company mark is what the page should show.
- Use Simple Icons when the mark must sit on a dark footer or inherit currentColor.
- Neither set is a UI icon family. Check the brand’s own rules before a use that reads as an endorsement.
Which one to open
Open SVG Logos when the page should show the recognizable color mark of a product or company, as drawn by that project. Open Simple Icons when the mark must be one color so it can sit on a dark footer or inherit currentColor. Searches like “{brand} logo svg” land here, not in Lucide.
These are brand pictures, not interface strokes. A monochrome GitHub mark does not belong in a row of generic actions, and a colored lockup does not belong in a Lucide toolbar. The cards above open each collection.
Color lockup versus one recolorable color
SVG Logos keeps the brand colors in the file. Recoloring those paths to currentColor will not leave a reliable brand mark. Simple Icons is one color on purpose. Names follow the company. For a colorful README badge, Skill Icons is a different set. For a plainer technology wordmark, look at Devicon.
The samples below are brand names that exist in both catalogs. Look at the color in SVG Logos and the single color in Simple Icons before you pick a file.
When to pick SVG Logos vs Simple Icons
Pick SVG Logos for a colored lockup on a light marketing surface. Pick Simple Icons when the mark must recolor with the theme or sit in a monochrome row of partner logos.
License and trademarks
The files in this catalog are CC0. CC0 is not a trademark license. Linking to a product with its mark is an ordinary use. Drawing the mark so readers think the company made or sponsors your work needs that company’s own guidelines. Both packs are trademarkRisk high on the Licenses matrix.
