Laravel Mix & Font Awesome Setup: Compiling Assets

This document provides help on getting your Laravel instance running with the latest versions of Laravel Mix and Font Awesome.

Steps

Build your webpack.mix.js configuration.

mix.js('resources/js/app.js', 'public/js')
   .sass('resources/sass/app.scss', 'public/css');

Install Font Awesome.

npm install @fortawesome/fontawesome-free

This will now be in your package.json.

// Font Awesome
"dependencies": {
    "@fortawesome/fontawesome-free": "^5.9.0",

In /resources/sass/app.scss import one or more styles.

// Font Awesome
@import '~@fortawesome/fontawesome-free/scss/fontawesome';
@import '~@fortawesome/fontawesome-free/scss/regular';
@import '~@fortawesome/fontawesome-free/scss/solid';
@import '~@fortawesome/fontawesome-free/scss/brands';

Let's compile our assets and produce a minified, production-ready build.

npm run production

Finally, reference your generated CSS file in your Blade template/layout.

<link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" href="{{ mix('css/app.css') }}">

Happy Mixing!
