React Native Fontawesome Icons

Benefits

  • No bloatware, one package with one iconset, nothing more nothing less
  • Full set of FontAwesome Icons properly updated
  • Insanely fast with minimal memory footprint
  • Uses the OS to render icons, for best in class performance (refer to performance note bellow)

Installation process

No need to link binaries just import the package and include the Font File in your project.

Usage

Note on hyphens

Javascript don't accept hyphens as valid object names hence all hyphens where removed and names converted to camel case.

Example: th-large becomes thLarge

Why this is fast, and uses almost no extra memory

This package uses the Text element to render Icons. The Text element delegates to the OS the render process of the icons based on the Font file. Both IOS and Android render fonts amazingly fast with little memory overhead. In essence
FontAwesome.ttf will be used by the OS to render icons and will benefit of years of native software improvement as well hardware acceleration.
