Arrow Left Icon

arrow-left · Arrow · 6 styles

Open the Arrow set and Arrow Left is one of the glyphs you get. It is one of 67 glyphs in that category and one of 1,246 icons in the library overall, each drawn on the same 24x24 grid so Arrow Left lines up optically with everything around it. The icon is addressed in templates by the string "arrow-left", and every style variant resolves from that single name.

The metaphor here is direction and movement. That places Arrow Left in the Arrow family, which covers directional movement and navigation and turns up in pagination controls, carousels, breadcrumb separators and stepper flows. Teams building any interface that moves the user between screens reach for this set first. Use Arrow Left 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.

Arrow Left in 6 styles

Arrow Left ships 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.

How to use the arrow-left icon in Angular

You register only the variants you actually render, so nothing unused reaches the bundle. Import ArrowLeftBold from the "@rchernando/solar-icons/arrow" 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 arrow-left live in that same entry point, so switching style is a one-line change.

typescript
import { ArrowLeftBold, ArrowLeftBoldDuotone, ArrowLeftLinear, ArrowLeftOutline, ArrowLeftBroken, ArrowLeftLineDuotone } from '@rchernando/solar-icons/arrow';
typescript
import { ApplicationConfig } from '@angular/core';
import { provideSolarIcons } from '@rchernando/solar-icons';
import { ArrowLeftBold } from '@rchernando/solar-icons/arrow';

export const appConfig: ApplicationConfig = {
  providers: [provideSolarIcons(ArrowLeftBold)]
};

Arrow Left icon FAQ

How do I use the arrow-left icon in Angular?
Import ArrowLeftBold from "@rchernando/solar-icons/arrow", register it with provideSolarIcons(ArrowLeftBold) and render <solar-icon name="arrow-left" iconStyle="bold" />. No HTTP request is made — the SVG is inlined at build time.
Which styles does Arrow Left 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 arrow-left?
Yes. The size input accepts any CSS length and the SVG uses currentColor, so Arrow Left inherits the text colour of its container — a Tailwind class such as text-violet-400 is enough.
