Icon size
Bootstrap 5 Icon size component
Responsive Icon size built with Bootstrap 5. Examples of ways to resize icons.
How it works
To increase icon sizes relative to their container, use fa-xs,
fa-sm, fa-lg (33% increase), or use literal sizes (to scale it from 1x to 10x) fa-2x, fa-3x,
fa-4x, fa-5x, fa-6x, fa-7x,
fa-8x, fa-9x, fa-10x.
<i class="fas fa-camera fa-xs"></i>
<i class="fas fa-camera fa-sm"></i>
<i class="fas fa-camera fa-lg"></i>
<i class="fas fa-camera fa-2x"></i>
<i class="fas fa-camera fa-3x"></i>
<i class="fas fa-camera fa-4x"></i>
<i class="fas fa-camera fa-5x"></i>
<i class="fas fa-camera fa-6x"></i>
<i class="fas fa-camera fa-7x"></i>
<i class="fas fa-camera fa-8x"></i>
<i class="fas fa-camera fa-9x"></i>
<i class="fas fa-camera fa-10x"></i>
You can make all your icons the same width so they can easily vertically align, like in a list or navigation menu.
Add a class of fa-fw on the HTML element referencing your icon to set one or more icons to the same fixed width. This is great to use when varying icon widths (e.g. a tall but skinny icon atop a wide but short icon) would throw off vertical alignment. For clarity in the following example, we’ve added a background color on the icon so you can see the fixed width and also bumped up the font-size of the parent element.
