I was using Heroicons in a Next.js app and they conveniently package the icons as React components.
One thing I wanted to do was customize the stroke width, so they would render thinner.
I looked for how to do that within the JSX, maybe with a prop, but I couldn’t find a way.
I could import the SVG directly from the site, but I liked the React components approach.
For some reason, I assumed setting a global CSS property directly wouldn’t work, as it was hardcoded in the SVG, but it actually worked:
svg path {
stroke-width: 1;
}
