Font Awesome, by Dave Gandy, is likely the most popular icon libary for websites and the web. This is because it was the first open-source project to do an icon font simply and elegantly.

However, over the last 5 years the icons in the set have become a bit dated and over used. Therefore, we saw the opportunity to update the library while maintaining the simple and common-sense method for using Font Awesome.

All Ficons icons use the same classname convention as Font Awesome. Making is a "drop-in" replacement for Font Awesome.

You can just replace your Font Awesome CDN link with the one from Ficons and everything should work the same.

Features:

Get over 200 new or replaced icons
Minimal and more consistent redesign
Simple, drop-in replacement for Font Awesome's 'fa-' class system
Update your site or apps icons in 60 seconds

Versioning

Ficons will be maintained under the Semantic Versioning guidelines as much as possible. Releases will be numbered with the following format:

<major>.<minor>.<patch>

And constructed with the following guidelines:

Breaking backward compatibility bumps the major (and resets the minor and patch)
New additions, including new icons, without breaking backward compatibility bumps the minor (and resets the patch)
Bug fixes, changes to brand logos, and misc changes bumps the patch
