What are @fortawesome/vue-fontawesome's main functionalities?

Basic Icon Usage

This feature allows you to use Font Awesome icons in your Vue components. You need to import the necessary icons and add them to the library, then use the <font-awesome-icon> component to display the icon.

<template>
  <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
  }
}
</script>

Customizing Icon Size

This feature allows you to customize the size of the icons. You can use the `size` prop to set the size of the icon, such as `1x`, `2x`, `3x`, etc.

<template>
  <div>
    <font-awesome-icon :icon="['fas', 'coffee']" size="3x" />
  </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
  }
}
</script>

Using Different Icon Styles

This feature allows you to use different styles of icons, such as solid, regular, and light. You need to import the icons from the respective Font Awesome packages and add them to the library.

<template>
  <div>
    <font-awesome-icon :icon="['fas', 'coffee']" />
    <font-awesome-icon :icon="['far', 'coffee']" />
    <font-awesome-icon :icon="['fal', 'coffee']" />
  </div>
</template>

<script>
import { FontAwesomeIcon } from '@fortawesome/vue-fontawesome'
import { library } from '@fortawesome/fontawesome-svg-core'
import { faCoffee as fasCoffee } from '@fortawesome/free-solid-svg-icons'
import { faCoffee as farCoffee } from '@fortawesome/free-regular-svg-icons'
import { faCoffee as falCoffee } from '@fortawesome/pro-light-svg-icons'

library.add(fasCoffee, farCoffee, falCoffee)

export default {
  components: {
    FontAwesomeIcon
  }
}
</script>
