Bootstrap Icons

Through most of the examples in this kit, we have used the default Icons for the Material Design provided by Google.

Font Awesome 5

Optionally, Soft UI Dashboard comes with Font Awesome which means 3000+ more vector icons made for you to use.

Usage

In order to use this icons on your page you will need to include the following script in the <head> section of your page before the theme’s main style:

Copy
<link href="/assets/vendor/@fortawesome/fontawesome-free/css/all.min.css" rel="stylesheet">

Initialization

Start placing icons in your HTML’s <body>. We recommend using a consistent HTML element, like <i>. Find the right icon and learn how to reference it in your markup.

You need to know two bits of information to reference an icon:

  1. its name, prefixed with fa- and
  2. the style you want to use’s corresponding prefix.
Copy
<i class="fas fa-heart"></i>
