## Default markup

The icon transition is triggered by adding an `.active` class to the `switch-icon` component.

<Example>
<button class="switch-icon" data-bs-toggle="switch-icon"> <span class="switch-icon-a text-secondary"> <Icon name="heart" /> </span> <span class="switch-icon-b text-red"> <Icon name="heart" type="filled" /> </span> </button>
</Example>

## Switch animations

You can also add a fancy animation to add variety to your button. See demo below:

<Example>
<button class="switch-icon" data-bs-toggle="switch-icon"> <span class="switch-icon-a text-secondary"> <Icon name="circle" /> </span> <span class="switch-icon-b text-primary"> <Icon name="circle" type="filled" /> </span> </button> <button class="switch-icon switch-icon-fade" data-bs-toggle="switch-icon"> <span class="switch-icon-a text-secondary"> <Icon name="heart" /> </span> <span class="switch-icon-b text-red"> <Icon name="heart" type="filled" /> </span> </button> <button class="switch-icon switch-icon-scale" data-bs-toggle="switch-icon"> <span class="switch-icon-a text-secondary"> <Icon name="star" /> </span> <span class="switch-icon-b text-yellow"> <Icon name="star" type="filled" /> </span> </button> <button class="switch-icon switch-icon-flip" data-bs-toggle="switch-icon"> <span class="switch-icon-a text-secondary"> <Icon name="thumb-up" /> </span> <span class="switch-icon-b text-facebook"> <Icon name="thumb-up" type="filled" /> </span>
