I just wanted to plug Icomoon ( https://icomoon.io/ https://icomoon.io/ ) -- They will let you assemble your own custom font icon set using subsets of public glyphs such as FA, and your own SVG images. I Hope this helps someone.
- brookside 10y agoI use icomoon and it is definitely helpful but I must say the UX for creating icon sets is quite scary to use. Clicking on an icon by default removes or adds it to the icon set, so its incredibly easy to exclude an icon you are using already (meaning next time you publish your font, that icon will no longer render on your page)
- kumaraman 10y agoYeah, I've done this countless times, only realising once I have packaged it into my project. I ended up creating a Webpack loader which takes a small JSON file and creates an icon set for my project. I could consider releasing it on Github if there is interest in something like this?
- grawlinson 10y agoThat would be awesome, I'd definitely be interested in having a look.
- vmasto 10y agoAbsolutely!

- TenJack 10y agoI use Icomoon extensively, it works great.
- irrational 10y agoI usually use icomoon as well. Are there any benefits to font awesome over icomoon?
- dexterdog 10y agoOne is that there is a much better chance that your user is going to have the font pack already cached.
- irrational 10y agoDo people actually include the entire font? I usually just grab the few svg icons I need and include those.
- dexterdog 10y agoFor FA? I would expect so. It' much easier to just link to the whole package for most people.
