Folder2 Icon
folder2 · Folders · 6 styles
Folder2 is one of the glyphs Solar Icons ships inside its Folders set. 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 Folder2 lines up optically with everything around it. The icon is addressed in templates by the string "folder2", and every style variant resolves from that single name.
Read literally, the shape signals folders and grouping. That places Folder2 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 Folder2 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.
Folder2 in 6 styles
Folder2 has been redrawn for 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.

Every export is an isolated constant, so the bundler drops whatever you never mention. Import Folder2Bold 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 folder2 live in that same entry point, so switching style is a one-line change.

Folder2 icon FAQ
- How do I use the folder2 icon in Angular?
- Import Folder2Bold from "@rchernando/solar-icons/folders", register it with provideSolarIcons(Folder2Bold) and render <solar-icon name="folder2" iconStyle="bold" />. No HTTP request is made — the SVG is inlined at build time.
- Which styles does Folder2 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 folder2?
- Yes. The size input accepts any CSS length and the SVG uses currentColor, so Folder2 inherits the text colour of its container — a Tailwind class such as text-violet-400 is enough.
