Because Font Awesome had some breaking changes between v4 and v5, this was a little more involved than it should have been. I tried to keep as close to the original usability as possible, making concessions only where necessary to allow the full usage of FA5 styles. I also switched from hosting a local copy of FA to using their public CDN, which is the recommended way to retrieve the CSS now. Only supports FA Free, though Pro should be trivial to add. I don't have a pro subscription though and didn't want to add support I couldn't verify was working.
