If I inspect on the little bird icon on twitter.com I see that its css has content: "/f179". Is this for twitter's icon? Is this for a special font with lots of special characters including twitter's icon?
Please use below code:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/font-awesome/4.6.1/css/font-awesome.min.css">
Add above link in head section of page and following code use for twitter icon on your page..
<i class="fa fa-twitter" aria-hidden="true"></i>
They turn SVG icons into a font, and use unicode to stand for it. This kind of font can be made by yourself in iconmoon or simply using font-awesome.

I am trying to use tag icon in the html but it's not showing the icon.
This is how I am trying to display the icon but it's not displaying the icon
<i class="fas fa-plus"></i>
But whereas if I use icon like below it's displaying the icon
<fa-icon [icon]="['fas','plus']"></fa-icon>
But I need to display Icon as in the below type in order to do my logics.
<i class="fas fa-plus"></i>
Any Help, Thanks!
You need to make sure that the font awesome library is properly loaded on the page. If you are using the Angular CLI, you can add the following line to the section of your HTML file:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://use.fontawesome.com/releases/v5.7.2/css/all.css" integrity="sha384-fnmOCqbTlWIlj8LyTjo7mOUStjsKC4pOpQbqyi7RrhN7udi9RwhKkMHpvLbHG9Sr" crossorigin="anonymous">
Once the library is loaded and available, you can use the tag to display the icon.
You must be missing an link tag in the header of the index.html. Also try to use:
<i class="fa fa-plus"></i>
When I'v tried to use the i tag for icons, i noticed the "fas" was not working for me. I had to remove the "s"
How to generate the twitter , facebook and youtube icon as in the top of the website
https://store.linefriends.com/
If I inspect the element I see the following html :
<li></li>
Not sure how that icon gets generated from this html line as there is no image etc here
Such icons can be generated using an icon library. The most popular choice is FontAwesome. If you want to add links, you can enclose i tag with an anchor tag, with href attribute. You need to add a bit of styling to it.
a{
color: black;
text-decoration: none;
}
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/font-awesome/5.15.3/css/all.min.css" integrity="sha512-iBBXm8fW90+nuLcSKlbmrPcLa0OT92xO1BIsZ+ywDWZCvqsWgccV3gFoRBv0z+8dLJgyAHIhR35VZc2oM/gI1w==" crossorigin="anonymous" referrerpolicy="no-referrer" />
<div class="container">
<span><i class="fab fa-twitter"></i></span>
<span><i class="fab fa-facebook-f"></i></span>
<span><i class="fab fa-youtube"></i></span>
<span><i class="fab fa-instagram"></i></span>
</div>
You can get the code for link tag from cdnjs
You can search for all icons on their website
You can also download icons and use img tag, but using an icon library, makes things a lot easier.
You use a font family ("Turbo" as I can see) that contains web icons inside.
The icon is generated from the class icon-twitter. Inside this <a> element there is a .icon-twitter::before pseudo element that contains the content value content: "\ea96";. This value is being interpreted to this icon.
So, if you want to change this icon you have to remove the icon-twitter class and put an <img> element with your custom image file ( I would recommend to be an svg file for better load time performance ).
you will need to check each css file found in inspect element via view source for class icon-twitter. (with code like )

Use font awesome for this. More details are available on https://fontawesome.com/
Fon awesome alternatives are available on https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.hongkiat.com/blog/free-font-icons-to-bookmark/amp/ OR https://alternative.me/font-awesome

You can use images to achievs this with tag
I'm using assan template
to build my laravel project. Everything is fine but the font awesome wont show up. then I'm using this link to fix it:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://use.fontawesome.com/releases/v5.13.0/css/all.css">
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://use.fontawesome.com/releases/v5.13.0/css/v4-shims.css">
after that, font awesome showed successfully, but the icons not. Here is the code where i put my icon:
<i class='icon-pictures fa-3x mb20 text-primary'></i>
I'm pretty sure that i've already include all java script and css to my project. but I don't know why this happen. is there something i can do or maybe i missed something?
The method for displaying an icon is that you have to use "fas fa-" following with which icon you want.
In the <i> class add fas fa- and the icon name after the -, This will display the icon.
I might be asking a dumb question, but I am a newbie in javascript and its libs.
I came across the same problem as this post, and in the accepted answer, there was this line
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/font-awesome/4.7.0/css/font-awesome.min.css">
However, after adding this line I have a navbar icon even though I did not include a img in my html. I also cannot manipulate the position of this icon built with this stylesheet. Can anyone explain what it does in this context? (referring to the post) I noticed that without this line of code the CSS and Javascript cannot be applied to a simple
<img class="search" src="icon.png" width="30" height="30">
And how is it possible for me adjust the location of the icon with this line of code?
font awesome is a css sheet, that when you use "font awesome classes" on a particular element, makes an icon appear. there's no jpgs or anything to mess with.
<i class="fa fa-address-book" aria-hidden="true"></i>
in a plain html, this will do nothing. but if you add the stylesheet to the page, you will see an address book icon.
all icons are located here: http://fontawesome.io/icons/
I've been scouring the web, and I can't find an answer to this. Is there away to add two Font Awesome icons in one i tag?
I can do it if I put two i tags side by side, like this:
Good for: <i class="fa fa-male fa-2x"></i><i class=" fa fa-female fa-2x"></i>
So is there anyway to do this?
Glyph-based fonts like this generally function by changing the content of the element to a specific value, which the font picks up and renders as the appropriate glyph.
So it's unlikely that you'll be able to use a single tag to display both of them unless the library provides specific syntax for handling that behavior on it's own (similar to how Font Awesome uses stacking).
This is not possible in a single <i> tag, reason is the way how the glyph identifying classes are applied. For longer or dynamic sequences you can however directly use the icons codes in markup notation:
html: <span class="font-awesome"></span>
css: .font-awesome { font-family: FontAwesome; }
This obviously requires that you load the font as FontAwesome.
I created a fiddler as simple demonstration: https://jsfiddle.net/6ofmn36g/
I do agree though that this is an approach that is somewhat hard to read, though...
With Font Awesome 5, it's possible!
Masking
Combine two icons create one single-color shape, thanks to the power of SVG in Font Awesome 5! Use it with our new Power Transforms for some really awesome effects.
Go through the Masking section in this link.
The below snippet is a small working example taken from their site
<!-- Important : Use the SVG & JS method and reference the Js file, not the CSS file -->
<script src="https://use.fontawesome.com/releases/v5.0.13/js/all.js"></script>
<div class="fa-4x">
<i class="fas fa-pencil-alt" data-fa-transform="shrink-10 up-.5" data-fa-mask="fas fa-comment" style="background:MistyRose"></i>
<i class="fab fa-facebook-f" data-fa-transform="shrink-3.5 down-1.6 right-1.25" data-fa-mask="fas fa-circle" style="background:MistyRose"></i>
<i class="fas fa-headphones" data-fa-transform="shrink-6" data-fa-mask="fas fa-square" style="background:MistyRose"></i>
</div>
Not possible with current library of FontAwesome. But there are work arounds as arkascha has suggested below.

You can also build a custom icon by using set of icons available in the font-awesome icon set by stacking and aligning them accordingly. Stacked Icons
Example:
<link href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/font-awesome/4.5.0/css/font-awesome.min.css" rel="stylesheet"/>
<span class="fa-stack fa-lg">
<i class="fa fa-male fa-stack-1x"></i>
<i class="fa fa-female fa-stack"></i>
</span>
