Congo has built-in support for a number of [FontAwesome 6](https://fontawesome.com/icons) icons. These can be included in your website through either the [icon partial]({{< ref "docs/partials#icon" >}}) or [icon shortcode]({{< ref "docs/shortcodes#icon" >}}).
Additionally, custom icons are also fully supported. Simply provide your own SVG icon assets by placing them in the `assets/icons/` directory in the root of your project. Any icons in the icons directory will then be available to use throughout the theme.
The full list of built-in icons and their corresponding names can referenced below.
