Font-awesome: Icon request : c-plus-plus

Created on 27 Sep 2018  Â·  42Comments  Â·  Source: FortAwesome/Font-Awesome

What can it be used for?

This icon can be used in building code playground websites, it denotes the c++ language. Most popular language after python. Font Awesome must have icon of c++ as it has icons for Java, Python, Node Js, Js, etc.

Example image (optional)

Icon request checklist

  • [x] This is a single icon or matched pair (Ex: lock / unlock)
  • [x] The title starts with "Icon request: " and is followed by the requested icon name (Ex: Icon request: magical-unicorn)
  • [x] I have searched for existing issues and to the best of my knowledge this is not a duplicate
  • [x] I have included at least one example image if it could be helpful (optional)
  • [x] The request is for a concrete object (it's harder to make an icon to represent happiness, it's easier to make a smiley face. ☺)
brand icon

I just don't get why it's not done already. Python, Java, Js, php and many others already have their icons

C++ definitely need his logo to be added. At this point it's just for simple consistency reason since font awesome is used in developing community.

Hello,

You can use <i class="fab fa-cuttlefish">++</i> for C++.

Regards, KD

It is done

Have critisism with the logo, the ++ is almost unseen at standard inline icon resolution. defeats the purpose.
the addition symbols should be bolder and larger

I also don't believe a ring with a 30 degree cut is copyrighted - so what infringment is here?

why re-open it? should start a new post for a new submission
Also, why not just re-use an existing one and modify it? surely it won't breach copyright if you already have permission/own it!
