Frequently asked questions
What the Forward icon means and where it's used, then how to install, style, label and license it.
The forward icon represents a navigation action, indicating the direction of movement or progression. This icon is commonly used in software applications to navigate to the next step, page, or screen. The forward icon is a widely recognized symbol for progression or advancement. In the context of navigation, it signifies the ability to move forward or proceed.
In software applications like web browsers, file explorers, or mobile apps, this icon is often used to navigate to the next page or screen. For instance, when a user wants to proceed to the next step in a process, they can click on the forward icon to continue.
From a UX perspective, the forward icon communicates the possibility of progression or advancement. It helps users understand that they can move forward or proceed, making it an intuitive and user-friendly interface element. The icon's simplicity and clear meaning make it easy for users to navigate and interact with the system.
Forward is one of 1,045 icons in Majesticons, made by Gerrit Halfmann and released under MIT. 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 ForwardIcon to components/icons/majesticons-forward.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 ForwardIcon 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 Forward icon, or any of 1,045 Majesticons 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="Forward", so screen readers say what it does.
Yes. ForwardIcon passes every SVG prop to the svg element, so <ForwardIcon 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 Majesticons, Gerrit Halfmann and the license.
Yes. Copying and downloading it is free, and the shadcn CLI install only needs a free account.
