Turn Your Design Exports into Production-Ready React Components
Designers love SVGs. Developers? Not so much. When you export an icon from Figma or Adobe XD, the code you get is messy, repetitive and often completely incompatible with React. Our SVG to React JSX converter is a free, browser-based tool that takes that raw markup and turns it into a clean, typed and optimized React component in seconds. No more manual attribute fixing or console warnings.
Why Raw SVGs Constanty Break Your React Build
React’s JSX isn’t exactly HTML. Since it is actually JavaScript, it follows JavaScript’s rules for naming and syntax. This creates a massive headache when you try to drop a standard SVG file into your code.
Here is why your browser keeps complaining:
Kebab-Case vs. CamelCase: SVG uses hyphens for almost everything (like stroke-width or fill-opacity). JavaScript can't handle hyphens in property names, so React requires "camelCase" versions like strokeWidth and fillOpacity. There are over 50 of these attributes and missing even one will trigger a React warning.
The "class" Conflict: In HTML, you use class. In JavaScript, class is a reserved keyword for making objects. React forces you to use className instead. If you forget to swap it, your styles simply won't show up.
Inline Style Mess: Standard SVGs write styles as strings: style="fill: blue". React demands an object: style={{ fill: 'blue' }}. If you leave the string in there, your app will crash at runtime.
Pointless Namespaces: Design tools love to add xmlns and xmlns:xlink tags. These are necessary for standalone files but totally useless inside a React app. We strip these out to keep your code lean.
Duplicate ID Bugs: If you export a "Linear Gradient" from Figma, it often comes with a generic ID like id="a". If you use that icon twice on one page, your browser gets confused and your gradients or masks will break. We help you clean these up so your icons look perfect every time.
What You Get: A Clean, Modern Component
We don't just give you a list of fixed attributes. We generate a full, idiomatic React component that follows industry best practices:
import React from "react";
const SvgIcon = React.memo(
(props: React.SVGProps<SVGSVGElement>) => (
<svg
xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"
width="400"
height="300"
viewBox="0 0 400 300"
{...props}
>
<rect width="100%" height="100%" fill="#f8f8f8" />
<path fill="#31343C" d="M112.215 126.065v34.4h-8.38..." />
</svg>
)
);
export default SvgIcon;The {...props} spread is the secret sauce. It lets you override the width, height or color of your icon from your parent component without ever touching the SVG code again.
Pro-Tip: Building a Scalable Icon System
The best way to use this tool is to build a centralized icon library for your app. Here is our recommended workflow:
- Convert your SVGs using this tool with TypeScript and React Memo turned on.
- Put each icon in its own file in a
components/iconsfolder. - Replace hardcoded colors with
"currentColor". - Export them all from a single
index.tsfile.
By using fill="currentColor", you can control your icon's color directly through CSS. This makes your icons fully theme-aware and responsive to dark mode without writing a single extra line of JavaScript.
Who is This For?
Frontend Developers who are tired of manually renaming 50 attributes every time a seeker sends over a new set of icons.
Design System Engineers who need to batch-convert dozens of assets into a consistent, type-safe library.
Full-Stack Devs who just want a quick, reliable way to make an SVG work without memorizing React's specific naming quirks.
Junior Developers who are seeing those "Invalid DOM property" warnings for the first time and just want a clean solution that works.
Your Code Stays Yours
Privacy is a big deal. All the conversion happens right inside your browser. We never send your SVG code to a server, so your proprietary designs and internal assets stay 100% private and secure.
