Icons can easily be added to your HTML page, by using an icon library.







How To Add Icons #

Add the name of the specified icon class to any inline HTML element (like <i> or <span>).

All the icons in the icon libraries below, are scalable vectors that can be customized with CSS (size, color, shadow, etc.)
