Hi!

Thanks for being part of the Font Awesome Community and thanks for asking this.

Long story short: In 2020, you are probably looking for Font Awesome (with the n). Fort Awesome is either an old commercial product created before Font Awesome's Kicstarter campagin and the correct name of Font Awesome's npm scope / GitHub organization

I should ask @davegandy or maybe @robmadole to elaborate on this and correct me if I'm wrong

I know this is an old subject, but I can't help wondering how many node.js developers get tripped up trying to install @fontawesome/fontawesome-free or any other library with the same prefix. To this day the repos are prefixed with @fortawesome which I can't emphasize how easy is to miss. Does foRt awesome even have any other products besides the fontawesome library?
