In order to use this icons on your page you will need to include the following script in the <head> section of your page before the theme’s main style:
<link href="/assets/vendor/@fortawesome/fontawesome-free/css/all.min.css" rel="stylesheet">Initialization
Start placing icons in your HTML’s <body>. We recommend using a consistent HTML element, like <i>. Find the right icon and learn how to reference it in your markup.
You need to know two bits of information to reference an icon:
- its name, prefixed with fa- and
- the style you want to use’s corresponding prefix.
<i class="fas fa-heart"></i>Icons
