ConTeXt has a different system for using fonts, as far as I know they need to be installed on the system for ConTeXt to be able to use them. I don't think they can be downloaded on the fly, as you have done for HTML.
Let's keep this issue open, but I don't see a solution right now.
Once installed on your system, here is a TeX snippet to make it easy to user fontawesome from markdown.
In your style file (say chmduquesne.tex)
\usesymbols[fontawesome]
\def\fa#1{\symbol[fontawesome][#1]}
in your markdown content
Simple: \fa{github}
As a link: [\fa{linkedin}](https://www.linkedin.com/in/your_linkedin_user_id/)
Result from a PDF
Expected Behavior
Use fontawesome for icons such as Github and Stackoverflow icons
Actual Behavior
Doesn't work. I can get it to work in HTML but not in the PDF by including the following in the markdown
Steps to reproduce the behavior
Versions
On Ubuntu 18.04 and using the following versions
This stackexchange post is relevant but unsure on how to get this to work from Markdown
