Caret Left Outlined

This icon indicates leftward navigation and collapse functionality with a refined outlined design suitable for navigation controls and panel interfaces. The outlined leftward-pointing caret creates visual clarity while maintaining minimal weight, making it appropriate for back buttons, sidebar toggles, and carousel controls where leftward indication enables user navigation without dominating interface hierarchy.

In modern applications like Gmail's back navigation or Notion's sidebar controls, you'll see this icon representing leftward action and panel collapse options. It appears in navigation breadcrumbs indicating backward movement, or in interface sidebars where caret icons enable panel hiding, content navigation, and space optimization supporting flexible layout management and navigation flows.

From a user interface perspective, the outlined caret-left icon communicates more than directional hint - it specifically indicates reversible navigation, collapse availability, and backward movement that distinguishes previous actions from forward progression. This outlined format helps users identify navigation controls without visual clutter.

Caret Left Outlined is one of 830 icons in Ant Design Icons, made by HeskeyBaozi and released under MIT. It is drawn on a 1024 × 1024 grid.

Sign in (it's free), then open Get icon, Install with shadcn CLI, and pick your package manager to copy the command. It adds CaretLeftOutlinedIcon to components/icons/ant-design-caret-left-outlined.tsx: one file, a size prop (24 by default) and every SVG prop, with no icon package.

Copy it as React (from Get icon, or the Code section): a typed CaretLeftOutlinedIcon component you paste into your project, with no package to install. Only the icons you import reach your bundle. It works in Next.js and any React app.

Open Get icon, then Copy as code, and pick Vue, Svelte, Angular, Solid or Preact; the Code section shows each one too. Every version is one self-contained component with the SVG inside, and SVG and data URL copies are there for plain HTML and CSS.

With Pro, the shadcn.io MCP server lets Claude Code, Cursor or any MCP client find the Caret Left Outlined icon, or any of 830 Ant Design Icons icons, and install it from a prompt.

It's drawn in currentColor, so it takes the text color wherever you use it: a class like text-primary recolors it. To bake a color in, set one in Customize before you copy.

Set width and height on the component, or a class like size-6. It's drawn on a 1024 × 1024 grid, so it stays sharp at any size. Customize also sets the size it exports at, its padding and rotation.

Yes. It follows the text color, so with text-foreground (or any theme token) it changes with your light and dark themes. The icon is a vector, so it needs no separate dark asset.

Next to a visible label it's decoration: add aria-hidden="true" so screen readers skip it. Standing alone, as in an icon button, give the button a name instead, like aria-label="Caret Left Outlined", so screen readers say what it does.

Yes. CaretLeftOutlinedIcon passes every SVG prop to the svg element, so <CaretLeftOutlinedIcon aria-hidden="true" /> works, and so do role="img" with aria-label, or a title child, when it carries meaning on its own.

Yes. Open Get icon, then Download file: SVG for code or design tools like Figma; PNG, WebP or JPEG at 512px; or an ICO favicon with 16, 32 and 48px inside. Each one uses what you set in Customize.

Yes. MIT allows commercial use; keep the license notice when you ship the icons' source files. The full terms are in the license, linked on this page.

No visible credit is required: MIT only asks that you keep the license notice if you ship the icons' source files. Icons installed with the shadcn CLI already start with a comment naming Ant Design Icons, HeskeyBaozi and the license.

Yes. Copying and downloading it is free, and the shadcn CLI install only needs a free account.

Its tags are navigation, arrow, outlined, back, left and previous. Each tag page lists the icons that carry it from every library, which is the quickest way to find a match for Caret Left Outlined in another set.

Ant Design Icons draws many icons in several styles: Filled and Twotone next to the default. Open the library and pick a style above the grid to see Caret Left Outlined's siblings in it.
