Fork Awesome is a full suite of 696 pictographic icons for easy scalable vector graphics on websites, originally created by [Dave Gandy](https://twitter.com/davegandy) and now maintained by a community.
Following concerns regarding [the development of Font Awesome](https://github.com/FortAwesome/Font-Awesome/issues/12199#issuecomment-362919956), the PR Freeze since Oct 2016 and the direction Fort Awesome is taking with the version 5.0 of their project, we are forking Font Awesome (4.7), in order to build on this incredible tool Dave Gandy has given us, while at the same time allowing this project to be run by a distributed community of contributors.
A tremendous gratitude is given to the whole team behind [Font Awesome](https://fontawesome.com), and you are encouraged to support them and buy Font Awesome Pro for your project.
Though If you believe in distributed open source design and wish to be part of this new adventure, please start submitting patches and suggestions of improvement.
