Via Composer

Blade Font Awesome also offers the ability to use features from Blade Icons like default classes, default attributes, etc. If you'd like to configure these, publish the blade-fontawesome.php
config file:
php artisan vendor:publish --tag=blade-fontawesome-config
Icons can be used a self-closing Blade components which will be compiled to SVG icons:
<x-fas-cloud/>
You can also pass classes to your icon components:
<x-fas-cloud class="w-6 h-6 text-gray-500"/>
And even use inline styles:
<x-fas-cloud style="color: #555"/>
Note: These are default prefixes for the specified icon sets, these can all be configured in the
config/blade-fontawesome.php
file.

If you want to use the raw SVG icons as assets, you can publish them using:
php artisan vendor:publish --tag=blade-fontawesome --force
Then use them in your views like:
<img src="{{ asset('vendor/blade-fontawesome/solid/cloud.svg') }}" width="10" height="10"/>
Blade Font Awesome supports pro icons using npm for downloads.
To use this, install Font Awesome Pro using npm i --save @fortawesome/fontawesome-pro
, and then run the following Artisan command to add the icons to your resources
path.
php artisan blade-fontawesome:sync-icons --pro
Blade Font Awesome will then automatically detect and use the pro icons under the resources/icons/blade-fontawesome
path.
Because of the sheer number of icons, a small performance hit can be seen when using Pro icons. If you'd like to mitigate this, you can cache the icons. To do this, run the following Artisan command:
php artisan icons:cache
Blade Font Awesome uses Blade Icons under the hood. Please refer to the Blade Icons readme for additional functionality.
