<div>
<font-awesome-icon :icon="['fas', 'coffee']" />
</div>
</template>
<script>
import { FontAwesomeIcon } from '@fortawesome/vue-fontawesome'
import { library } from '@fortawesome/fontawesome-svg-core'
import { faCoffee } from '@fortawesome/free-solid-svg-icons'
library.add(faCoffee)
export default {
components: {
FontAwesomeIcon
}
