Any other properties supplied will be spread to the root element (ButtonBase).

CSS

You can override all the class names injected by Material-UI thanks to the classes property. This property accepts the following keys:

Name Description
root Styles applied to the root element.
colorInherit Styles applied to the root element if color="inherit".
colorPrimary Styles applied to the root element if color="primary".
colorSecondary Styles applied to the root element if color="secondary".
disabled Styles applied to the root element if disabled={true}.
label Styles applied to the children container element.

Have a look at overriding with classes section and the implementation of the component for more detail.

If using the overrides key of the theme, you need to use the following style sheet name: MuiIconButton.

Inheritance

The properties of the ButtonBase component are also available. You can take advantage of this behavior to target nested components.
