## What it is
An Emacs Lisp utility package that bundles icon fonts (FontAwesome, Octicons, Weather Icons, etc.) and provides functions to insert propertized icons into Emacs buffers. It offers helpers to automatically pick icons for files, directories, modes, and URLs.

- add icons to the Emacs mode line
- insert font icons in Emacs buffers
- get an icon for a file extension in Emacs
- beautify Emacs UI packages with icons

## When to choose
- you use Emacs with a graphical display and want icon fonts
- you are building or configuring Emacs packages like doom-modeline or neotree that need icons

## When to avoid
- you use Emacs in a terminal without icon font support
- you need icons outside of Emacs

## Facets

- maturity: maintenance
- function: ui-components, developer-tools
