Informations about the package fork-awesome
⚠️ This project is deprecated! ⚠️
The driving force for forking—to have a community run icon set—has not been realized. The site and font build processes are broken. The source icon files need to be reworked or remade. The project focuses on icon fonts, despite icon fonts as a technology being outdated. Many other free icon sets now exist.
For more details, read the full matrix room and say hi.
There are many other icons project out there!

Fork Awesome
A fork of the iconic font and CSS toolkit, Font Awesome
Fork Awesome is a suite of 796 pictographic and brand icons for easy, scalable vector graphics on websites and beyond.
This project began as a fork of Font Awesome. Font Awesome was originally created by Dave Gandy and ran as a community project. However, as Font Awesome developed, pull requests from the community stopped being accepted (October 2016) and as of version 5.0 the build system became private (February 2018).
With gratitude to Dave Gandy and the Font Awesome team, Julien Deswaef forked Font Awesome 4.7 into Fork Awesome 1.0 in February 2018, to continue building the amazing resource in a fully free, libre and open-source fashion, with and for the wider community. After a period of extended inactivity (i.e. no release since February 2019), several Fork Awesome users got together to try and revive the project 🌱
We are now catching up with backlogged issues and pull requests, updating technology and documentation — even reevaluating the project aims, as icon fonts gradually become deprecated. Come say hi in the #forkawesome:matrix.org matrix room 🙂
