+name: bestax-icons
+description: Use icons in an app built with @allxsmith/bestax-bulma — the Icon/IconText components and the five supported libraries (Font Awesome, Material Design Icons, Ionicons, Google Material Icons, Material Symbols). Use when adding an icon, choosing or configuring the app-wide icon library, fixing an icon that renders blank, pairing icons with text, or making icons accessible (decorative vs labeled).
+license: MIT
+---
+
+# Icons with @allxsmith/bestax-bulma
+
+`Icon` renders a Bulma icon container (`span.icon`) around a glyph from any of five icon
+libraries behind one normalized API. `IconText` pairs icons with text. The library ships **no
+icon fonts** — the chosen library's package (or CDN script) must be installed in the app.
+
+## Quick start
+
+```tsx
+import { ConfigProvider, Icon, IconText } from '@allxsmith/bestax-bulma';
+
+// Set the library ONCE at the app root; <Icon> then never needs `library`.
+<ConfigProvider iconLibrary="fa">
+  <App />
+</ConfigProvider>;
+
+// Inside the app:
+<Icon name="rocket" ariaLabel="Launch" />;
+<IconText iconProps={{ name: 'star', 'aria-hidden': 'true' }}>
+  Starred
+</IconText>;
+```
+
+## The five libraries
+
+| Library                | `iconLibrary` / `library` value | Name format                  | Example `name`  |
+| ---------------------- | ------------------------------- | ---------------------------- | --------------- |
+| Font Awesome (default) | `'fa'`                          | kebab-case, no `fa-` prefix  | `rocket`        |
+| Material Design Icons  | `'mdi'`                         | kebab-case, no `mdi-` prefix | `rocket-launch` |
+| Ionicons               | `'ion'`                         | kebab-case                   | `rocket`        |
+| Google Material Icons  | `'material-icons'`              | snake_case (a text ligature) | `rocket_launch` |
+| Material Symbols       | `'material-symbols'`            | snake_case (a text ligature) | `rocket_launch` |
+
+⚠️ **The Ionicons value is `'ion'`, not `'ionicons'`.** The `npm create bestax` scaffold's
+`--icon ionicons` flag maps to `iconLibrary="ion"` — passing `'ionicons'` to `ConfigProvider`
+or `library` silently renders nothing.
+
+**The same glyph has a different name per library** (`rocket` vs `rocket-launch` vs
+`rocket_launch`). When an icon renders blank, the name format for the active library is the
+first thing to check. A redundant `fa-`/`mdi-` prefix in `name` is tolerated (stripped), but
+don't rely on it.
+
+## Styling
+
+- `size` — `'small' | 'medium' | 'large'` sizes the Bulma **container** (`is-small` ≈ 1rem,
+  `is-medium` ≈ 2rem, `is-large` ≈ 3rem box). To scale the **glyph**, use `features`
+  (Font Awesome `'fa-lg'`/`'fa-2x'`) or a Bulma text-size class (`'is-size-3'`).
+- `variant` — per-library style: Font Awesome `solid` (default) / `regular` / `brands` /
+  `light` / `duotone` / `thin`; Material Icons `filled` (default) / `outlined` / `round` /
+  `sharp`; Material Symbols `outlined` (default) / `rounded` / `sharp`; Ionicons `outline` /
+  `sharp`. MDI has no variants. Note Material **Icons** uses `round`, Material **Symbols**
+  uses `rounded`.
+- `features` — extra library classes, string or array: `'fa-spin'`, `['fa-lg', 'fa-border']`.
+- Color via the helper props: `textColor="primary"`, `textColor="danger"`, etc.
+
+## Accessibility
+
+Every `Icon` renders `aria-label` (default `"icon"`).
+
+- **Meaningful icon** (stands alone, conveys information): pass a descriptive
+  `ariaLabel="Delete item"`.
+- **Decorative icon** (next to visible text that says the same thing, e.g. inside `IconText`
+  or a labeled `Button`): hide it from screen readers with `aria-hidden`:
+  `<Icon name="check" aria-hidden="true" />` — otherwise "icon" (or a duplicate label) is
+  announced alongside the text.
+
+## References
+
+- `references/icon-libraries.md` — per-library setup (install/import/CDN), the full
+  name-format and variant tables, `features` values, and the blank-icon troubleshooting list.
+- `examples/icon-usage.tsx` — runnable example: ConfigProvider setup, sizes, variants,
+  colors, IconText, and decorative-vs-labeled patterns.

+# Icon libraries — setup, names, variants, troubleshooting
+
+Facts an agent can act on for each of the five libraries `Icon` supports. The library ships no
+icon fonts: the app must install the chosen library (the `npm create bestax` scaffold's
+`--icon` flag does this; in an existing app, follow Setup below).
+
+## How `Icon` renders
+
+- `fa` / `mdi` — an `<i>` with CSS classes (`fas fa-rocket`, `mdi mdi-rocket-launch`).
+- `material-icons` / `material-symbols` — an `<i>` whose **text content** is the name
+  (a font ligature): `<i class="material-icons">rocket_launch</i>`. That's why these names are
+  snake_case — they are literal text, not class names.
+- `ion` — the `<ion-icon>` web component: `<ion-icon name="rocket-outline" />`.
+
+The resolution order for the library is `library` prop → `ConfigProvider iconLibrary` → `'fa'`.
+Set it once on `ConfigProvider` and omit `library` everywhere else.
+
+## Font Awesome — `'fa'` (the default)
+
+- **Setup:** `npm install @fortawesome/fontawesome-free` and
+  `import '@fortawesome/fontawesome-free/css/all.min.css';` once (e.g. `main.tsx`).
+- **Scaffold flag:** `--icon fontawesome`.
+- **Names:** kebab-case without the `fa-` prefix: `rocket`, `circle-check`, `magnifying-glass`.
+  A leading `fa-` in `name` is stripped automatically (so `fa-rocket` also works), but write
+  the bare name.
+- **Variants** (`variant` → class): `solid` → `fas` (default), `regular` → `far`, `brands` →
+  `fab`, `light` → `fal`, `duotone` → `fad`, `thin` → `fat`. The free package includes only
+  solid, regular (partial), and brands — light/duotone/thin need a Font Awesome Pro kit.
+- **Features:** Font Awesome utility classes — `'fa-lg'`, `'fa-2x'`…`'fa-10x'`, `'fa-spin'`,
+  `'fa-pulse'`, `'fa-border'`, `'fa-fw'`, `'fa-flip-horizontal'`, `'fa-rotate-90'`.
+- Brand icons **require** `variant="brands"`: `<Icon name="github" variant="brands" />`.
+
+## Material Design Icons — `'mdi'`
+
+- **Setup:** `npm install @mdi/font` and
+  `import '@mdi/font/css/materialdesignicons.min.css';`.
+- **Scaffold flag:** `--icon mdi`.
+- **Names:** kebab-case without the `mdi-` prefix: `account`, `rocket-launch`,
+  `home-outline`. A leading `mdi-` is stripped automatically. Outline/off styles are part of
+  the **name** (`home-outline`, `bell-off`), not a variant.
+- **Variants:** none — `variant` is ignored for MDI.
+- **Features:** MDI helpers (`'mdi-24px'`, `'mdi-48px'`, `'mdi-spin'`, `'mdi-rotate-90'`) or
+  Bulma text-size classes (`'is-size-3'`).
+
+## Ionicons — `'ion'` ⚠️ value is `ion`, not `ionicons`
+
+- **Setup:** a CDN script pair in `index.html` (no npm package — it registers the
+  `<ion-icon>` web component):
+
+  ```html
+  <script
+    type="module"
+    src="https://unpkg.com/ionicons@8.0.13/dist/ionicons/ionicons.esm.js"
+  ></script>
+  <script
+    nomodule
+    src="https://unpkg.com/ionicons@8.0.13/dist/ionicons/ionicons.js"
+  ></script>
+  ```
+
+- **Scaffold flag:** `--icon ionicons` — which maps to `iconLibrary="ion"`. Passing
+  `'ionicons'` as the `library`/`iconLibrary` value renders nothing.
+- **Names:** kebab-case: `rocket`, `heart`, `settings`.
+- **Variants:** `outline` and `sharp` — appended to the name (`variant="outline"` +
+  `name="heart"` renders `<ion-icon name="heart-outline">`). Omit for the filled default.
+- **Features:** not applicable (web component, not classes); size the container with `size`
+  or style via CSS.
+
+## Google Material Icons — `'material-icons'`
+
+- **Setup:** `npm install material-icons` and `import 'material-icons';`.
+- **Scaffold flag:** `--icon material-icons`.
+- **Names:** snake_case ligature text: `home`, `rocket_launch`, `shopping_cart`. A kebab-case
+  name will not match a ligature and renders as raw text.
+- **Variants:** `filled` (default) / `outlined` / `round` / `sharp` — note **`round`**, not
+  `rounded`.
+- **Features:** Bulma classes like `'is-size-1'` (the font scales with text size).
+
+## Material Symbols — `'material-symbols'`
+
+- **Setup:** `npm install material-symbols` and `import 'material-symbols';`.
+- **Scaffold flag:** `--icon material-symbols`.
+- **Names:** snake_case ligature text, same as Material Icons: `rocket_launch`.
+- **Variants:** `outlined` (default) / `rounded` / `sharp` — note **`rounded`** here vs
+  Material Icons' `round`.
+- **Features:** Bulma classes like `'is-size-1'`.
+
+## One glyph, five names
+
+| Glyph    | fa                 | mdi             | ion        | material-icons / material-symbols |
+| -------- | ------------------ | --------------- | ---------- | --------------------------------- |
+| Rocket   | `rocket`           | `rocket-launch` | `rocket`   | `rocket_launch`                   |
+| Home     | `house` / `home`   | `home`          | `home`     | `home`                            |
+| Settings | `gear`             | `cog`           | `settings` | `settings`                        |
+| Search   | `magnifying-glass` | `magnify`       | `search`   | `search`                          |
+
+## Blank icon? Check in this order
+
+1. **Library value** — `'ion'` not `'ionicons'`; the five valid values are `fa`, `mdi`,
+   `ion`, `material-icons`, `material-symbols`.
+2. **Name format for that library** — kebab vs snake_case (see the table above); for
+   material-* a wrong name renders as literal text instead of a glyph.
+3. **The library's CSS/script is actually loaded** — the import in `main.tsx` (or the
+   Ionicons scripts in `index.html`) must exist; bestax ships none of them.
+4. **Variant availability** — Font Awesome free has no `light`/`duotone`/`thin`; brand
+   glyphs need `variant="brands"`.
+
+## IconText
+
+Pairs icon(s) with text inside a Bulma `icon-text` container. Single icon:
+
+```tsx
+<IconText iconProps={{ name: 'check', 'aria-hidden': 'true' }}>Saved</IconText>
+```
+
+Multiple segments via `items`:
+
+```tsx
+<IconText
+  items={[
+    { iconProps: { name: 'train', 'aria-hidden': 'true' }, text: 'Metro' },
+    {
+      iconProps: { name: 'arrow-right', 'aria-hidden': 'true' },
+      text: 'Airport',
+    },
+  ]}
+/>
+```
+
+Icons inside `IconText` sit next to their visible text — mark them decorative with
+`aria-hidden` (see SKILL.md's accessibility rules).
