Bootstrap Glyphicons
Glyphicons are the icon fonts that are used in web projects. Bootstrap provides 260 Glyphicons from the Glyphicons Halflings set.
Some examples of Glyphicons are:
- Envelope glyphicon
- Print glyphicon
- Search glyphicon
- Download glyphicon etc.
Glyphicons Syntax
- <span class="glyphicon glyphicon-name"></span>
To create the desired Glyphicon, the "name" part of the syntax must be replaced accordingly.
For example: If you want to create "envelope" glyphicon, then you must write the following syntax:
- <span class="glyphicon glyphicon-envelope"></span>
