Hand Shake Icon

hand-shake · Hands · 6 styles

Filed under Hands, the Hand Shake icon is part of the Solar Icons Angular package. It is one of 5 glyphs in that category and one of 1,246 icons in the library overall, each drawn on the same 24x24 grid so Hand Shake lines up optically with everything around it. The icon is addressed in templates by the string "hand-shake", and every style variant resolves from that single name.

Users read the shape as a hand gesture. That places Hand Shake in the Hands family, which covers hand gestures and pointing and turns up in onboarding tooltips, drag hints, consent screens and tutorial overlays. Teams building products that need to teach an interaction reach for this set first. Use Hand Shake 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.

Hand Shake in 6 styles

Hand Shake is drawn 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 hand-shake icon in Angular

Registration is explicit, which is what keeps the bundle small. Import HandShakeBold from the "@rchernando/solar-icons/hands" 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 hand-shake live in that same entry point, so switching style is a one-line change.

typescript
import { HandShakeBold, HandShakeBoldDuotone, HandShakeLinear, HandShakeOutline, HandShakeBroken, HandShakeLineDuotone } from '@rchernando/solar-icons/hands';
typescript
import { ApplicationConfig } from '@angular/core';
import { provideSolarIcons } from '@rchernando/solar-icons';
import { HandShakeBold } from '@rchernando/solar-icons/hands';

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

Hand Shake icon FAQ

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