Sort Alt

The sort-alt icon represents an alternative way to arrange or organize data. It's often used in digital products, such as file managers or databases, to provide users with multiple sorting options.

In software applications like Windows Explorer, macOS Finder, or MongoDB, this icon might appear when users need to sort data using custom criteria or alternative sorting methods. It's an essential feature for users who need to analyze complex data sets from different perspectives.

From a UX perspective, the sort-alt icon communicates a sense of flexibility and customization, allowing users to choose the sorting method that best suits their needs. It helps users understand that they can experiment with different sorting approaches to gain insights into their data.

Sort Alt is one of 141 icons in Quill Icons, made by Casper Lourens and released under MIT. It is drawn on a 32 × 32 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 SortAltIcon to components/icons/quill-sort-alt.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 SortAltIcon 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 Sort Alt 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.

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="Sort Alt", so screen readers say what it does.

Yes. SortAltIcon passes every SVG prop to the svg element, so <SortAltIcon 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.
