Identicon

Symmetric pixel patterns that identify a user or object.

Install

npm install @dicebear/core@9.4.2 @dicebear/collection@9.4.2

Generate an avatar

The same seed always produces the same avatar, so a user ID or username works as a seed. Avatars are generated locally without a network service.

import { createAvatar } from '@dicebear/core';
import { identicon } from '@dicebear/collection';

// “Identicon” by DiceBear, CC0 1.0
const avatar = createAvatar(identicon, {
  seed: 'Aria Chen',
  size: 128,
  radius: 50,
});

export const svg = avatar.toString();     // inline SVG markup
export const dataUri = avatar.toDataUri(); // use as an <img> src

React component:

import { useMemo } from 'react';
import { createAvatar } from '@dicebear/core';
import { identicon } from '@dicebear/collection';

export function UserAvatar({ seed, size = 64 }: { seed: string; size?: number }) {
  const src = useMemo(() => createAvatar(identicon, { seed, size }).toDataUri(), [seed, size]);
  return <img src={src} width={size} height={size} alt={`Avatar for ${seed}`} />;
}
