Frequently asked questions
What the Folder Add icon means and where it's used, then how to install, style, label and license it.
The folder-add icon represents the action of adding or creating a new folder, often used to indicate that a new directory or container is being created. This icon is commonly used in digital interfaces to signify that a new folder is being added to a file system or storage repository. The folder-add icon is also used in various contexts to represent the creation of a new container or directory.
In software applications, the folder-add icon is often used in file management or data storage systems to indicate that a new folder is being created. For example, in a file explorer, the folder-add icon may be used to create a new directory or folder. Similarly, in data backup systems, the folder-add icon may be used to create a new repository or archive.
From a UX perspective, the folder-add icon communicates that the user has the ability to create new containers or directories. This icon helps users understand that they can organize their digital content in a flexible and dynamic way, giving them a sense of control and agency over their files and documents. The folder-add icon also helps to create a sense of possibility, as users can easily create new folders or directories as needed.
Folder Add is one of 141 icons in Quill Icons, made by Casper Lourens and released under MIT. It is drawn on a 32 × 32 grid with a 2 stroke.
Sign in (it's free), then open Get icon, Install with shadcn CLI, and pick your package manager to copy the command. It adds FolderAddIcon to components/icons/quill-folder-add.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 FolderAddIcon 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 Folder Add icon, or any of 141 Quill 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 32 × 32 grid, so it stays sharp at any size. Customize also sets the size it exports at, its padding and rotation, and its stroke.
Folder Add is a line icon drawn with a stroke width of 2. Change it in Customize before you copy, or pass strokeWidth to the installed component when all of its strokes share one width.
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="Folder Add", so screen readers say what it does.
Yes. FolderAddIcon passes every SVG prop to the svg element, so <FolderAddIcon 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 Quill Icons, Casper Lourens and the license.
Yes. Copying and downloading it is free, and the shadcn CLI install only needs a free account.
