FontAwesome Introduces Duo Icons & Teases Duotone Colors
FontAwesome, a leading icon library used by millions of websites, is gearing up for exciting updates. In their recent 5.9 release, they introduced 421 new icons, including ‘duo icons’—clever pairings like laptop & phone or silo & barn. They’ve also teased the upcoming addition of duotone icons, promising customizable two-tone colors via CSS pseudoclasses like ::before and ::after. While still in beta, these features hint at a vibrant future for web design. At Starfire Web Design, we’re eager to explore these enhancements in our projects, confident that FontAwesome’s benefits far outweigh any minor impact on page load times.
