Icon

Icon component for Universal Apps

FontAwesome icons to include in your app. Icon names are slightly different than those shown on the FontAwesome website. For example, if you want to use the network-wired icon, you would use the following string.

New-UDIcon -Icon 'NetworkWired'

Finding an Icon

We include FontAwesome v6 with PowerShell Universal. You can use Find-UDIcon to search through the list of included icons.

Find-UDIcon User

The UniversalDashboard.FontAwesomeIcons enum should not be used and is only included for backwards compatibility. Many of the icons are no longer a part of FontAwesome 6.
