How to Use Font Awesome in Figma

Use this interactive demo to learn how to apply Font Awesome icons to your Figma text layers.

Quick summary

This demo shows how to use Font Awesome in Figma by selecting a text layer and applying the font through the Typography panel. In four steps, designers can quickly swap any text layer's font to a Font Awesome variant without leaving Figma.


Steps

  1. In your Figma design canvas, locate and click the text layer you wish to change the font style.
  2. Navigate to the right-side panel and click the font style menu under the Typography section.
  3. Search for 'Font Awesome' in the font menu and select the specific variant you want to use.
  4. Once the steps are complete, Font Awesome will be applied to the selected text layer.

📌 Why this matters

Font Awesome is one of the most widely used icon libraries in UI and web design, and being able to apply it directly within Figma saves designers significant time during prototyping and handoff. Using Font Awesome as a font in Figma lets teams maintain icon consistency across designs without importing individual assets. This workflow is essential for designers who want to quickly test icon-based layouts, build scalable design systems, or align Figma mockups with production code that already uses Font Awesome. Mastering this integration reduces friction between design and development and accelerates the overall product design process.
