@jsweb/font-awesome-base64

Font Awesome icons compiled with base64 embedded font to CSS instead of link to font files.

About

This compilation uses original files from fontawesome package and a little custom hack to replace @font-face src url settings and embed font with data-uri.

Only WOFF2 fonts are included to minify the compiled CSS at most as possible and because WOFF2 is supported by all major modern browsers. Web is the focus here.

IE compatibility is not a concern. For a compatibility reference see the link:

Can I use - WOFF2
