Circle Swirl icon FAQ
What does this icon show?
Circle with nested arcs winding into a spiral, for loading states, swirl motifs and decorative marks. Typical uses: loading spinner placeholder, placeholder brand logo and card corner decoration.
When should I use it instead of a similar icon?
Use it for:
- In progress status on task rows and issue cards, once work has started but is not done
- Daily goal rings on a fitness or habit tracker card, 1 arc per target
For not started status on a task row, before any work begins, use the Circle Ring icon. For a spinner on a button or table while a request runs, use the Loading icon. For share breakdowns drawn as a donut on an analytics card, use the Chart icon.
Which styles does it come in?
4 styles: Outline, Solid, Duotone and Filled. Every style is drawn on the same 24 by 24 grid and installs as its own file, so you can switch styles without touching the layout. An animated variant also plays a short animation on hover, or whenever your code starts it.
How do I install it with the shadcn CLI?
Copy the install command from the panel above, in the style you want, and run it in your project. The shadcn CLI adds the icon as a React component that you import and render like any other. It draws in the current text color, so your text color and size classes style it. Icon installs need a ReUI Ultimate license.
What icons go well with it?
Icons from the same family and the Shapes set: Triangle Swirl, Arcs Radiate, Circle Diamond, Circle Pinwheel, Circle Ring and Circle Weave.
When was it added, and what was it called before?
It joined the ReUI icon library on June 30, 2026. It was previously named abstract-48, and that install name still resolves to this icon.
