Build a Magazine - Step 10

HTML-CSS

Tell us what’s happening:

How social media company logos are being displayed here without <img> and src attribute ?
I tried something, I deleted one <i> element then logo of 1 company disappeared but how it is possible ? It only has a class attribute.

Your code so far

I searched through all html and css lessons, I couldn’t find this lesson, please help me to find it.

I only remember, it is some format based on vector, if image is in this format then its retains it quality even if stretched.

Okay so fontawesome is a css stylesheet which has logo of social media companies, we imported stylesheet in header and now we are using the class selector to style our <i> element as logo ?
