</UserControl>

After that you can use the fa:Icon control to display awesome icons. Property FaName specifies the icon name to display. If an icon has more then one style you can switch it with property FaStyle between Brands, Regular und Solid. The fa:Icon control stretches automatically to container size or you can set Width and Height to size your icon.
