The Kendo UI for Vue RatingItem enables the user to implement different styles for the RatingItem children.

## RatingItem customization

The RatingItem component could be used for customization of the existing rating item. The following example demonstrates the RatingItem in action, changing the icon visualization to `heartIcon` SvgIcon, based on the existing RatingItem rendering.
