Package description
The @fortawesome/fontawesome-common-types npm package provides TypeScript definitions for common types used across the Font Awesome ecosystem. This package is primarily intended for internal use by other Font Awesome packages to ensure consistent type definitions across the suite of Font Awesome tools and components. It includes types for icons, icon styles, and other configurations.
IconDefinition
Defines the structure of an icon definition, including its name, style prefix, and SVG path data. This is crucial for ensuring that icons are consistently defined and used across different Font Awesome components.
{"prefix": "fas", "iconName": "user", "icon": [512, 512, [], "f007", "M...Path"]}
IconPrefix
Specifies the available style prefixes for Font Awesome icons, such as solid (`fas`), regular (`far`), light (`fal`), duotone (`fad`), and brands (`fab`). This helps in categorizing icons based on their style and ensuring the correct rendering of the icon.
"fas" | "far" | "fal" | "fad" | "fab"
IconName
Represents the names of available icons. This type is used to ensure that only valid icon names are used within the Font Awesome ecosystem, preventing errors related to undefined or misspelled icons.
"user" | "coffee" | "car" | "apple-alt"
This package provides SVG and CSS for Google's Material icons. Similar to @fortawesome/fontawesome-common-types, it offers a wide range of icons but focuses on Material Design aesthetics. It does not provide TypeScript types out of the box.
A set of premium icons for use in web, iOS, Android, and desktop apps. Ionicons is similar in providing a comprehensive icon set but is tailored more towards Ionic Framework applications. Like @fortawesome/fontawesome-common-types, it supports various styles but is more focused on mobile and web app development.
Typicons are free-to-use vector icons embedded in a webfont for easy integration with any web project.
