Adding the SVG icon to our block – A

SVG sanitization prevents security vulnerabilities by removing potentially malicious code. Use plugins like SafeSVG to clean uploaded SVGs and ensure they’re safe for WordPress environments.

Convert sanitized SVGs for React compatibility using tools like SVG Playground, which transforms HTML-style attributes to React-compatible JSX syntax automatically.

WordPress provides SVG and Path components from @wordpress/components for accessible, standardized icon implementation. Extract icons to dedicated files to keep registration code clean and maintainable.
