Easily add Font Awesome icons using these simple Blade directives.

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

Simply require the package in your project. Supports Laravel 7 and above.

`composer require djam90/laravel-font-awesome`

That's it!

The service provider will be automatically registered and the blade directives are ready to use in your views.

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

There are 5 Blade directives made available with this package. These are to support the 5 different styles in Font Awesome:

- Solid (fas)
- Regular (far)
- Light (fal)
- Duotone (fad)
- Brand (fab)

### Examples

[](#examples)

#### Solid

[](#solid)

```
@fas('user')

```

Will output:

```

```

#### Regular

[](#regular)

```
@far('user')

```

Will output:

```

```

#### Light

[](#light)

```
@fal('user')

```

Will output:

```

```

#### Duotone

[](#duotone)

```
@fad('user')

```

Will output:

```

```

#### Brand

[](#brand)

```
@fab('500px')

```

Will output:

```

```

### Caveats

[](#caveats)

If you attempt to use an incompatible directive and icon combination, it simply will not work. An example would be `@fab('user')` because there is no "user" brand icon.
