Universal avatar makes it possible to fetch/generate an avatar based on the information you have about that user. We use a fallback system that if for example an invalid Facebook ID is used it will try Google, and so on.
For the moment we support following types:
- Vkontakte
- Skype
- Gravatar
- Custom image
- Name initials
The fallbacks are in the same order as the list above were Facebook has the highest priority.
Install the component using NPM:
$ npm install react-avatar --saveOr download as ZIP.
-
Import Custom Element:
import Avatar from 'react-avatar';
-
Start using it!
<Avatar name="Foo Bar" />
