Font Awesome 4 Installation Instructions (fontawesome4)

With the recent politicizing agendas, it's worth mentioning that old versions aren't necessarily worse, and new versions aren't necessarily better. In case they disappear elsewhere, below you can find the instructions for installing Font Awesome v4.

Using CSS
  1. Copy the entire font-awesome directory into your project.

    <i class="fa fa-address-book" aria-hidden="true"></i>
