12
+ ## 1. Icon Discovery (The Catalog)
13
+
14
+ Boxicons is divided into three distinct styles (packs). Use these counts to verify icon availability.
15
+
16
+ * **Basic (Outline)**: 1,884 icons
17
+ * *Directory*: `svg/basic/`
18
+ * *Filename*: `bx-{name}.svg`
19
+ * *Webfont Usage*: `<i class="bx bx-{name}"></i>`
20
+ * **Filled (Solid)**: 1,884 icons
21
+ * *Directory*: `svg/filled/`
22
+ * *Filename*: `bx-{name}.svg`
23
+ * *Webfont Usage*: `<i class="bxf bx-{name}"></i>`
24
+ * **Brands (Logos)**: 295 icons
25
+ * *Directory*: `svg/brands/`
26
+ * *Filename*: `bx-{name}.svg`
27
+ * *Webfont Usage*: `<i class="bxl bx-{name}"></i>`
28
+
29
+ ### Programmatic Lookup
30
+ To verify if an icon exists without guessing, check the `icons.json` manifest or use the core utility:
31
+
32
+ ```javascript
33
+ const { icons, metadata } = require('@boxicons/core');
34
+ if (icons.includes('bx-alarm')) {
35
+ console.log('Icon exists!');
36
+ }
37
+ ```
38
+
39
+ ---
40
+
41
+ ## 2. Webfont Usage (CSS)
42
+
43
+ If you are using the CSS version (via CDN or `dist/fonts/`), Boxicons uses a "Shared Unicode" architecture. The base class (`bx`, `bxf`, `bxl`) sets the font-family, while the icon class (`bx-name`) sets the content.
44
+
45
+ ### Standard Icons
46
+ ```html
47
+ <!-- Basic -->
48
+ <i class="bx bx-user"></i>
49
+
50
+ <!-- Filled -->
51
+ <i class="bxf bx-user"></i>
52
+
53
+ <!-- Brands -->
54
+ <i class="bxl bx-github"></i>
55
+ ```
56
+
57
+ ### Animations & Transformations
58
+ Boxicons includes built-in classes for animations and transformations.
59
+
60
+ **Animations** (Requires `animations.css`):
61
+ * `bx-spin`: Continuous rotation (Loading)
62
+ * `bx-tada`: Gentle shake (Notifications)
63
+ * `bx-flashing`: Opacity pulse
64
+ * `bx-burst`: Scale pulse
65
+ * `bx-fade-left` / `bx-fade-right` / `bx-fade-up` / `bx-fade-down`: Directional fades
66
+
67
+ ```html
68
+ <i class="bx bx-loader bx-spin"></i>
69
+ <i class="bx bx-bell bx-tada"></i>
70
+ ```
71
+
72
+ **Transformations** (Requires `transformations.css`):
73
+ * `bx-rotate-90` / `180` / `270`
74
+ * `bx-flip-horizontal` / `bx-flip-vertical`
75
+
76
+ ```html
77
+ <i class="bx bx-train bx-flip-horizontal"></i>
78
+ ```
79
+

235
+
236
+ ## 6. Maintenance Workflows (For Agents)
237
+
238
+ ### Adding a New Icon
239
+ 1. **Place SVG**: Add the raw `.svg` file to the correct directory:
240
+ * `packages/free/boxicons-core/svg/basic/`
241
+ * `packages/free/boxicons-core/svg/filled/`
242
+ * `packages/free/boxicons-core/svg/brands/`
243
+ 2. **Naming**: Filename must always be `bx-{name}.svg` (e.g., `bx-user.svg`).
244
+ 3. **Generate**: Run `npm run generate` in the core package to update `icons.json`.
245
+ 4. **Version**: Run `npx changeset` to document the addition.
246
+
247
+ ### SVG Standards (Enforced by CI)
248
+ * **ViewBox**: MUST be `0 0 24 24`.
249
+ * **Dimensions**: Do NOT include `width` or `height` attributes in the source.
250
+ * **Fill**: Do NOT hardcode colors; use `currentColor` or let the tool strip them.
251
