Font Awesome is the web's most popular icon set and toolkit.
Font Awesome 5 and version 8.x-2.x/7.x-3.x
Font Awesome 5 has been released!
This new version of Font Awesome is a complete rewrite from Font Awesome 4.7.0 and functions very differently. The upgrade process requires a bit of extra work on the part of content managers (or the inclusion of a shim file which allows backwards compatibility).
To prevent the breaking of sites for users who are currently using Font Awesome 4.7.0, we are releasing a new branch of this module under 8.x-2.x for use with Font Awesome 5! (7.x-3.x for Drupal 7 users)
For existing module users - see the README for information on how to install. See the Font Awesome guide on upgrading for information on how the syntax has changed.
