Hi Folks!

Ever seen a website with awesome icons such as : ?

Have you ever wondering how to make such thing? If so then great, you're in the right place. Let's get into it.

First of all, create or open up your HTML file. Let's say it's called index.html and it might look similiar to this :

<html lang="en" dir="ltr">

<head>
  <meta charset="utf-8">
  <title>My Awesome Website</title>
</head>

<body>

</body>

</html>

Ok so before we proceed to the next step, we need to include FA's library.
To do so, just copy the code below and place it right before your </head> tag :

<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/font-awesome/4.7.0/css/font-awesome.css" />
</head>

So your new index.html file would looks like this :

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en" dir="ltr">

<head>
  <meta charset="utf-8">
  <title>My Awesome Website</title>
  <link rel="stylesheet" href="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/font-awesome/4.7.0/css/font-awesome.css" />
</head>

<body>

</body>

</html>
