Line Awesome is a free icon font of ~1,380 flat line icons that serves as a drop-in replacement for Font Awesome 5.11.2, based on the Icons8 Windows 10 style. It can be loaded via CDN, downloaded as a zip, installed via npm, or imported into design tools like Figma and Sketch.

Use cases

  • replace font awesome with modern line icons
  • add icons to a website with a css class
  • find a free alternative to font awesome icons
  • use consistent line icons in figma or sketch designs
  • swap font awesome for a lighter icon font in one line of code
  • get brand and solid icon styles for a web project

When to choose

  • you already use Font Awesome 5 and want a modern line-style look without changing markup
  • you need broad icon coverage (~1,380 icons) in a single lightweight font
  • you want icons usable both on the web and in design tools

When to avoid

  • you need icons beyond the Font Awesome 5 set or highly specific/custom icons
  • you require per-icon SVG tree-shaking or a React/Vue component library
  • you need a license without the quirky Good Boy License terms (though MIT is offered)
