The Relearn theme for Hugo loads the [**Font Awesome**](https://fontawesome.com) library, allowing you to easily display any icon or logo available in the Font Awesome free collection.
## Finding an icon
Browse through the available icons in the [Font Awesome Gallery](https://fontawesome.com/v5/search?m=free). Notice that the **free** filter is enabled, as only the free icons are available by default.
Once on the Font Awesome page for a specific icon, for example the page for the [heart](https://fontawesome.com/v5/icons/heart?s=solid), copy the HTML reference and paste into the Markdown content.
The HTML to include the heart icon is:
```html
<i class="fas fa-heart"></i>
```
## Including in markdown
Paste the `<i>` HTML into markup and Font Awesome will load the relevant icon.
```html
Built with <i class="fas fa-heart"></i> by Relearn and Hugo
```
Which appears as
Built with <i class="fas fa-heart"></i> by Relearn and Hugo
## Customising icons
Font Awesome provides many ways to modify the icon
- Change color (by default the icon will inherit the parent color)
- Increase or decrease size
- Rotate
- Combine with other icons
