Icon size variants

@Adam Stankiewicz (on behalf of keithgg from OpenCraft)

Open Source Pull Request (OSPR)

Proposal to add a new size variant xs (1 rem) for the Icon component’s font size (docs).

Observations:

• Icon component defines variables for sizes {sm|md|lg} as class names (e.g., .pgn__icon__sm), but these class names are more of an implementation detail than something consumers should use directly.

  • [recommendation/proposal] Add support for a size prop on the Icon component and update Button to pass-through its size prop to Icon.

• The use case along with this proposal could alternatively be solved with the Hyperlink component, rather than re-creating what Hyperlink does.

  • That said, this size prop for Icon also seems to be a welcome addition.

• Icon component doesn’t yet have a standalone page in Figma.

Notes:

• Seems like there is a future use case for size variant, “xs”, 1 rem

• Use size prop to use these sizes and props in the future for things like button
