Treehouse TeacherHey CJ Doyle, not sure if you've got it working now, but figured I'd leave this tip here if others are stuck. If you have the font but aren't able to see the icon, try changing the text weight. For instance, in Font Awesome 5 Free the "bars" icon is available in the Solid weight, but not the Regular weight. So, if you're looking at it with the Solid weight applied, you'll see a box with a question mark to signify it can't be found. Alternatively, you can download a Sketch file of the icon glyphs here and copy/paste the icons without using a font: https://fontawesome.com/download

2,673 PointsHi CJ,
You can download the font here: https://fontawesome.com/download
If you're using mac, you can just open the font file and you should be able to use it globally: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201749
PC: https://www.fontspring.com/support/how-do-i-install-fonts-on-my-windows-pc
And if you're on Linux... Well I'm not sure what you're doing on Linux :p
