#### One Font, 605 Icons

In a single collection, Font Awesome is a pictographic language of web-related actions.

#### No JavaScript Required

Fewer compatibility concerns because Font Awesome doesn't require JavaScript.

#### Infinite Scalability

Scalable vector graphics means every icon looks awesome at any size.

#### Free, as in Speech

Font Awesome is completely free for commercial use. Check out the license.

#### CSS Control

Easily style icon color, size, shadow, and anything that's possible with CSS.

#### Perfect on Retina Displays

Font Awesome icons are vectors, which mean they're gorgeous on high-resolution displays.

#### Plays Well with Others

Originally designed for Bootstrap, Font Awesome works great with all frameworks.
