Short Up

The short-up icon represents an upward-pointing arrow, symbolizing movement or direction upwards. This icon is derived from the common visual representation of arrows, which are widely used to indicate direction or movement. The upward arrow specifically suggests action or navigation in an upwards direction.

In digital interfaces, the short-up icon appears in contexts where direction or movement needs to be indicated. For example, it is used in web browsers like Edge to indicate scrolling or top actions and in apps like Facebook to suggest navigation upwards.

From a UX perspective, the short-up icon communicates direction and movement. When users see this icon, they understand that they need to navigate or move upwards, which helps them interact with interface elements or access top content. This icon is essential in guiding users through interfaces.

Short Up is one of 715 icons in coolicons, made by Kryston Schwarze and released under CC BY 4.0. It is drawn on a 24 × 24 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 ShortUpIcon to components/icons/ci-short-up.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 ShortUpIcon 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 Short Up icon, or any of 715 coolicons 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 24 × 24 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="Short Up", so screen readers say what it does.

Yes. ShortUpIcon passes every SVG prop to the svg element, so <ShortUpIcon 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, with credit: CC BY 4.0 asks you to credit the author (Kryston Schwarze) where you use the icons. The full terms are in the license, linked on this page.

Yes. CC BY 4.0 asks you to credit the author where you use the icons, for example "Icons by Kryston Schwarze, CC BY 4.0" on an about or credits page.

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

Its tags are navigation, direction, indicator, arrow and up. Each tag page lists the icons that carry it from every library, which is the quickest way to find a match for Short Up in another set.
