Font Awesome 5 released #65

Just want to point out that Font Awesome 5 is released recently. Nowadays, there is a difference in font type (i.e. you can pick solid, regular and light fonts). I believe it is quite awesome to include the new font library to your framework :)

Hi Yoeri, best wishes for the new year! Sorry for the slow reaction, I've been a bit drowned in work. I saw the release, I actually bought the "pro" version to have a look at everything they added.

But one thing is a BFP (Big F... Problem): they have renamed all icons making it completely non backwards compatible. That is, in my opinion, pretty dumb, and I do not yet know how to go and fix that 8-/ I was slowly changing DomUI's default icons to FA ones, but I fear I need some other solution to that I can at least support multiple icon versions... Yet another translation layer, bah.

So- still thinking about it...
