How to use in Angular Material?

Question

I was wondering how to use Material\'s icons, as this is not working:

Answer 1

All md- prefixes are now mat- prefixes as of time of writing this!

Put this in your html head:

<link href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/icon?family=Material+Icons" rel="stylesheet">

Import in our module:

import { MatIconModule } from '@angular/material';

Use in your code:

<mat-icon>face</mat-icon>

Here is the latest documentation:

Answer 2

<md-button class="md-fab md-primary" md-theme="cyan" aria-label="Profile">
    <md-icon icon="/img/icons/ic_people_24px.svg" style="width: 24px; height: 24px;"></md-icon>
</md-button>

Answer 3

It actually works now from bower.

bower install material-design-icons --save

It downloads 37.1 KBs. Then it extracts and installs. You will see a folder called material-design-icons in bower_components folder. The total size is around 299KBs
