Add Folder Icon
add-folder · Folders · 6 styles
Add Folder sits in the Folders shelf of the Solar Icons library. It is one of 14 glyphs in that category and one of 1,246 icons in the library overall, each drawn on the same 24x24 grid so Add Folder lines up optically with everything around it. The icon is addressed in templates by the string "add-folder", and every style variant resolves from that single name.
In practice it stands for creating something new and folders and grouping. That places Add Folder in the Folders family, which covers folders, nesting and directory state and turns up in sidebars, tree views, breadcrumb roots and move-to dialogs. Teams building file browsers and content management systems reach for this set first. Use Add Folder where the label alone would be ambiguous — an icon-only button, a dense table row, a mobile tab bar — and keep an accessible name on the control, because the SVG itself is decorative.
Add Folder in 6 styles
Add Folder is available in 6 style variants: Bold, Bold Duotone, Linear, Outline, Broken and Line Duotone. Bold gives you solid filled shapes that hold their weight at 16px and read clearly against coloured backgrounds. Bold Duotone gives you a filled body with a second, lower-opacity layer that adds depth without a second colour token. Linear gives you even 1.5px strokes, the neutral default for dense interfaces and toolbars. A common pairing is Bold for the selected state and Line Duotone for the rest, so the active item reads without a colour change.

Registration is explicit, which is what keeps the bundle small. Import AddFolderBold from the "@rchernando/solar-icons/folders" entry point, hand it to provideSolarIcons in your application config or in a route-level providers array, and render it with the solar-icon component. All 6 exports for add-folder live in that same entry point, so switching style is a one-line change.

Add Folder icon FAQ
- How do I use the add-folder icon in Angular?
- Import AddFolderBold from "@rchernando/solar-icons/folders", register it with provideSolarIcons(AddFolderBold) and render <solar-icon name="add-folder" iconStyle="bold" />. No HTTP request is made — the SVG is inlined at build time.
- Which styles does Add Folder support?
- 6 of them: Bold, Bold Duotone, Linear, Outline, Broken and Line Duotone. Each is a separate export, so you only ship the ones you import.
- Can I change the size and colour of add-folder?
- Yes. The size input accepts any CSS length and the SVG uses currentColor, so Add Folder inherits the text colour of its container — a Tailwind class such as text-violet-400 is enough.
