how to use the custom font icons?

Question

I like the icons on this website http://cadence.stylehatch.co/ but I did inspect element it showed me like.

content:"\e003"

So when I went to this website of custom fonts http://fontcustom.com/ Its hard to understand the usage. It talks about ruby and rails and for me this is all Greek. Is there a better explanation or can someone show me a small demo.

thanks.

Answer 1

http://fontawesome.io/ is a font library for icons. That will get you what you want. You will then use a font like this: <i class='fa fa-user'></i> for example.
