Lucide Icon Picker — Beautiful, Open Source and Free Icons For Your Work

Things like these are always nice to see but…

This image is slightly concerning to me, not because it’s like offensive or something in that manner, but if a developer is looking for quick and easy icons, and you have to type in the entire key string for it to pop up, that isn’t going to look very good, and it’s going to turn me away to just use the already existing Material Icon plugin

Nice resource anyways though.

You haven’t installed it, did you? I didn’t include a screenshot of the normal view, but when not searching, it lists out all the icons in a vertically.

At first site it sparks the question: “Do I really have to type the whole name of the icon?”

I recommend making a screenshot of the complete list too. I don’t think having it with a search bar and a full name gives off a good look when someone is going to use your resource, which is the case that just happened here.

First impression is everything. I already have the other Plugin I linked so I have no use for this, just saying that at first site it can make people question.

People won’t know that because they don’t know your plugin, example of that is me. Sorry.

There. Updated the post to resolve your concern

Much better! Now it will avoid any questions someone might have when they first look at this. I might check it out in my free time just to see how the icons look with some of my games. Might not switch from my current solution however.

Also kind of happy you fixed it because “Screenshots” was plural before

So it makes more sense now.

What’s the difference between this and your previous Feather for Roblox contribution?

The icons look identical

EDIT: To those wondering this, looks like this version has 70% more icons! very cool

0.0.2 just got released, here are the changes:

  • Added all icons from Lucide Icons (excluding those that do not fit the ToS)
  • Picker now fetches from the new JSON list from GitHub if internet is available and access is approved, otherwise will fall back to the default one.

Simply update via the plugin manager (if you installed it that way), or reimport it by downloading the binary via the releases.


I’ll see whether if I can make it load a page of icons at first, and continue to load more when scrolled to bottom.

the title wasn’t wrong, these are simply BEAUTIFUL!~
the UI is amazing as well, searching for icons is easy and overall, this is a really well-rounded plugin for UI designers, well done!

Huge update!

I have just finished rewriting the picker plugin so there won’t be a huge FPS spike when loading the plugin. Soon I will be uploading all the new icons from Lucide (they will be uploaded to another repository). Here are the main highlights of the new version:

Facelift

A complete UI facelift, more compact means more icons can be displayed at once, also reducing the travel distance when moving to a specific icon.

Pin to ribbon

Finding the picker in the plugin ribbon could be time consuming if you have a lot of plugins. The new version now allows user to pin the plugin to the ribbon. Don’t know how? Check the gif below:

Keybind

You can also instead set a keybind to open up the picker.


This update has been pushed to the plugin itself, existing users can update the plugin in order to receive it. You can also get the source code here:

That’s awesome! I use this plugin a lot and it’s very useful!

Hey, I’m a bit of a noob when it comes to icons and stuff but how would I import an icon?

I downloaded the icons from the website and I am trying to use the backpack.svg icon and I am not sure what to do with it.

You have to first convert the image into a raster image as Roblox does not accept vector images at the moment. Once converted and if the converted image is in black color fill instead of white, invert the color space first. This is not required, but will be neat if you plan to change the color of the icon within Roblox.

Lastly, apply alpha bleeding to the image. You can visit this page if you are curious why this step is required before uploading. To apply, you can choose to use an image editor (e.g. GIMP), or by using an existing toolchain which is designed for this, such as: alpha-bleeder by AmaranthineCodices.

I used an automated process to upload all the icons for this plugin. You can check the shell script in the repository (for *nix only. Install WSL if Windows).

To clarify, I’m not sure if this is caused by the plugin creator or some framework the plugin creator used…

Seems the plugin version was shut-down as a type of ‘strike’ against Roblox ID verification, if so, this is probably not the right way to handle this, Roblox likely won’t care and you just end up killing any audience your plugin has.

Asking people to download it on Git is also a bad idea, not everyone knows how to handle that stuff. (It’s why Roblox plugins exist). I’m literally considering not using Lucide icons anymore because it seems to me that this is no longer being used as a way for developers to find free icons for their game and is instead being used as a way to push an issue on an unrelated topic onto people hindering their development workflow.

And for anyone who hasn’t updated their version of the Lucide plugin yet, don’t, you’ll lose access to using it.

Yeah, 100% not the right way to go.

Never heard of this plugin, but it looked alright before the protest. If you want to protest, do it some other way instead of making your plugin virtually useless, OP.

I have found in the past with a Feather Icons plugin for Figma that it’s a bit lacking at times though (never mind, didn’t realise this is using a fork of the Feather Icons pack) you’d be better sticking to a Material Design icon picker plugin instead.

I made this plug-in originally for private use but not for as a community resource. Weather has it become “virtually useless” for anyone else doesn’t really matter to me especially when you can just install from the rbxm binary file which is just a 2-step process.

I appreciate it that it’s easy to download like that instead of messing around with Rojo, but for anyone who doesn’t know what they’re looking for, this is a pain, plus you’re sacrificing automatic updates.

Not when the plug-in binary model is published in the deployment section.

Anyway the marketplace version doesn’t get updated.

Then why delete it? There’s no point and you’re just losing out on audience. I get your struggles, but just because you don’t like something, isn’t an excuse to completely make the marketplace version unusable. I was actually thinking of using this, I am no longer.

Since you’ve decided to take this off the creator marketplace for whatever reason, can you at least provide an explanation on how to download and use it from the “repository”?
