SVG Sprite Generator

How to use

1. 1Drop one or many .svg files onto the upload area, click it to pick files, or paste raw <svg> markup and click Add markup. Use Load sample icons to try the tool with a small set first.
2. 2Edit the symbol id on each source to control how you'll reference it from <use href="#id"/>. Duplicate ids are automatically suffixed -2, -3, and so on.
3. 3Toggle Set fills to currentColor (and optionally drop hardcoded stroke colors) so the icons inherit the surrounding text color when embedded.
4. 4Pick a global id prefix to avoid collisions with other sprites, and turn pretty-print on for a readable file or off for the smallest output.
5. 5Copy the sprite SVG into your page, or click Download sprite.svg. Use the HTML, CSS, and React snippets as ready-to-paste starting points.

About this tool

SVG Sprite Generator combines many separate SVG icons into one sprite sheet that exposes each icon as a <symbol> with its own id. The output is a single SVG document containing one <symbol> per source, with the viewBox copied over from the original (or rebuilt from width and height when no viewBox is present). Once the sprite is embedded in your page, every icon can be reused any number of times with <svg><use href="#icon-name"/></svg>, which saves an HTTP request per icon, lets the browser rasterize each shape only once, and makes color theming trivial with currentColor. The tool accepts SVGs three ways: drag and drop one or many .svg files onto the dropzone, click the dropzone to open a multi-select file picker, or paste raw SVG markup into the textarea and click Add markup to push it into the sprite. Each source is parsed locally with DOMParser; well-formed SVGs become a <symbol> with their original children, and malformed inputs surface a clean message in the source list so the rest of the sprite still compiles. Per-symbol controls let you rename the id (sanitized to a valid HTML id token and de-duplicated automatically when two sources collide), and a global prefix option (default "icon-") avoids id collisions with other sprite sheets on the same page. Three semantic toggles make the sprite ready for theming: force every hardcoded fill to currentColor so icons inherit the surrounding text color, drop hardcoded stroke colors for the same reason on stroke icons, and strip top-level <title>/<desc>/<metadata> nodes that bloat the file. Editor-only attributes from Inkscape, Sketch, Figma, Adobe Illustrator, and the matching xmlns declarations are removed automatically. Output options include pretty-printing for readability versus minifying for the smallest file, and a "hide the sprite in the page" option that adds the inline style needed when you paste the sprite directly into your HTML body. Every change updates the preview grid live, showing each icon rendered by the same <use> reference your application will use. Copy buttons give you the sprite SVG, an HTML usage snippet (showing how to reference each icon with <svg><use href="#id"/></svg>), a CSS background snippet, and a reusable React component pattern. A Download sprite.svg button packages the result as a file. Everything runs in your browser; SVG sources and the generated sprite never leave your device. Useful for shipping icon sets in a single cacheable file, replacing per-icon <img> tags with reusable symbols, eliminating background-image data URIs that bloat your CSS, and theming icon libraries with CSS color tokens.
