Font Awesome 5 use social/brand icons in React

Question

The Font Awesome documentation shows only how to add regular/solid fonts to React. How about social icons?

First I grabbed the packages:

  npm i --save @         


        

Answer 1

Note that you must run the commands that you ran first:

npm i --save @fortawesome/fontawesome-svg-core 
npm i --save @fortawesome/free-brands-svg-icons 
npm i --save @fortawesome/react-fontawesome

I'd tried to import without installing first - and of course that didn't work.
