A Swift library that provides type-safe, statically-typed access to Apple's SF Symbols icon library, avoiding crash-prone string-based lookups. All symbols are validated via CI across iOS, tvOS, watchOS, and macOS versions.
Use cases
- reference SF Symbols icons without typos in Swift
- avoid crashes from invalid SF Symbol names
- get compile-time safety for icon names in iOS apps
- use SF Symbols across iOS, macOS, watchOS and tvOS
- replace unsafe UIImage(systemName:) string lookups
When to choose
- you build Apple-platform apps in Swift and use SF Symbols icons
- you want compile-time checking of symbol names and availability
- you support multiple Apple OS versions and need availability safety
When to avoid
- you develop outside Apple platforms or in non-Swift languages
- you only use custom icon assets instead of SF Symbols
