00:31 fa5 styles
00:35 so we'll look inside of this block grid
00:38 um i have font awesome icons disabled in
00:41 edit mode
00:42 um just to make things a little bit
00:44 faster so
00:46 if you're if you're not disabling um
00:48 font awesome icons in edit mode
00:50 um you might want to try it if you if
00:53 you want things maybe a little bit more
00:54 performant
00:55 so inside site styles if you go into
00:57 your font awesome swatch
00:59 just go ahead and uncheck the load icons
01:02 in edit mode
01:03 um and that will make it so you can't
01:05 see the icons in edit mode
01:06 but it really does help with performance
01:09 of edit mode so
01:10 um yeah if you're okay with not seeing
01:12 the icons in edit mode i definitely
01:14 recommend you
01:15 turn that off okay um so there we go
01:21 let's go back down to that
01:30 okay here we go so um
01:33 in here you'll notice that i have you
01:35 know a bunch of uh font awesome icons
01:37 and they're just inside of an html stack
01:39 and it's just they have there's nothing
01:41 special in them they have just the font
01:43 awesome code
01:44 um i didn't add any classes no nothing
01:47 okay so um let's look at some
01:51 uh some swatches that i have here
01:54 this first one allows us to i'm
01:56 targeting solid icons and light icons
01:59 okay and what's kind of cool is you can
02:01 target all of the icons within a
02:03 particular layout
02:04 so here i'm providing a parent class of
02:07 icon grid
02:08 and i think i added that to yeah this
02:10 block grid here
02:12 has a parent class of icon grid okay so
02:15 essentially
02:16 what this is doing is it's
02:20 uh it's targeting all light and solid
02:23 icons
02:24 inside the icon grid
02:31 okay so um so yeah so there we go so i'm
02:35 applying some hover styles where we can
02:37 apply um basically well here it looks
02:39 like my icon colors are the same so that
02:41 doesn't really matter
02:42 um and then you can provide custom
02:44 sizing so this sizing is gonna
02:46 size all the icons to 50 pixels 6
02:49 pixels and 70 pixels
02:51 um you know so they're all uniform and
02:53 we define as you see different sizes for
02:55 different
02:56 uh break points
02:59 okay so the next one um the next one
03:02 uh we'll target uh a parent class of red
03:05 icon
03:06 so i think if we look at some of these
03:08 block grid cells yeah if you look at
03:10 some of the block grid cell
03:12 um i have various things so like this
03:14 cell has blue icon
03:16 um this one has red icon this one has a
03:19 red icon
03:20 and this one has blue icon right um
03:24 so it allows us to target all of the
03:26 icons within a parent class called red
03:28 icon
03:29 and here i am i'm styling those red
03:33 and on hover they're going to be orange
03:35 right so over here if we look
03:36 this red one when i hover over it it is
03:38 orange
03:40 okay same thing with these blue ones
03:42 when i hover over it it's going to be
03:43 green
03:44 okay and i'm pretty sure that's what
03:45 this one does so this one yeah it does
03:47 blue icon blue hover green
03:50 there you go so yeah this is a really
03:54 simple swatch to use but it's just um it
03:56 does make it easier to style our icons
03:58 to make sure the icons on our page are a
04:00 uniform color"}]
