FontAwesome Unicode Value Class Generator - Website

$

Hello,

I have started to use FontAwesome in my projects, and have noticed that a lot of the Unicode values found on the forums are a little out of date. They only include a handful of the total icons present in the current version of the icon toolset.

As I wanted to have access to all the latest icons, I decided to hack together a tool that took the Unicode data from the latest cheatsheet (found here), and converted it into a C# class that I could use within my Xamarin.Forms projects. As I felt others may benefit from this tool as well, I decided to make a quick website to wrap up the functionality in the tool:

fontawesomecheatsheet.azurewebsites.net/

Please bear in mind that this was hacked together in about 30 minutes. However, it seems to work. Basically, it scrapes the data from the cheatsheet page and generates a C# class with the Unicode values as static fields. Just click the code to select it, copy it, and you should be good to go. It also includes a basic search function that can be used within any of your value converters/font awesome icon label classes etc.

If you have any feedback, please post on here. I'll try to fix bugs/update features as soon as I can!

Thanks,
Richard
