Host Yourself - Web Fonts

Set-Up with Web Fonts

The /webfonts folder contains all of the typeface files, i.e., the icons.
The /css/all.css file contains the core styling plus all of the icon styles you'll need when using Font Awesome.
Which Files and Folders What’s in there
/fontawesome6/pro/webfonts Icons as Web Fonts to be used with CSS
/fontawesome6/pro/css CSS files for using Web Fonts
/fontawesome6/free/webfonts Just the Free Icons as Web Fonts to be used with CSS
/fontawesome6/free/css CSS files for using just the Free Web Fonts

Add Font Awesome Files to Your Project

Copy the /webfonts folder and the /css/all.css file into your project’s assets directory where other images and CSS are stored.
You'll want to keep them in the same directory.
