# Include [Font Awesome](http://fontawesome.io/)

[Font Awesome](http://fontawesome.io/) gives you scalable vector icons that can instantly be customized — size, color, drop shadow, and anything that can be done with the power of CSS.
Create a new project and navigate into the project...
```
ng new my-app
cd my-app
```

Install the `font-awesome` library and add the dependency to package.json...
```bash
npm install --save font-awesome
```

To add Font Awesome CSS icons to your app...
```json
// in angular-cli.json

"styles": [
  "styles.css",
  "../node_modules/font-awesome/css/font-awesome.css"
]
```

Run `ng serve` to run your application in develop mode, and navigate to `http://localhost:4200`.

To verify Font Awesome has been set up correctly, change `src/app/app.component.html` to the following...
```html
<h1>
  {{title}} <i class="fa fa-check"></i>
</h1>
```

After saving this file, return to the browser to see the Font Awesome icon next to the app title.
