Overview

The Icon component is a visual element used to represent actions, objects, or status indicators within the user interface. Icons in noKodr are integrated into various components, serving as symbols that enhance user understanding and navigation.

Here's how icons are typically used in noKodr:

  • Component Representation: Icons may be used to represent different UI components, making it easier for users to identify and select them when designing a layout.

  • Action Triggers: Icons can be linked to specific actions, such as saving a form, opening a modal (referred to as "screens" in noKodr), or deleting an entry. These icons are usually placed on buttons.

  • Status Indicators: Icons might indicate the status of a process or item, such as showing whether a workflow is active, pending, or completed.

  • Enhancing Visual Appeal: Icons add a visual layer to the interface, making it more engaging and user-friendly by providing quick, recognizable cues.
