Text="&#xf133;" />

Step 5 :- Output

Answer 1

First, download Font Awesome, extract the ZIP file and copy fonts/fontawesome-webfont.ttf into a Fonts folder in your solution. Set the Build Action in the properties to Resource if it isn’t already

Next, add a Style to the Resources in App.xaml. Don’t forget the # at the front of the font name and remember to use the internal name of the font, not the name of the file. To check the name of the font, just double click on the font file and it will open in the Windows Font Viewer. The font name will be at the top.

<Application.resources>
<FontFamily x:Key="FontAwesome">/Fonts/fontawesome-webfont.ttf#FontAwesome</FontFamily>
</Application.resources>

Open MainWindow.xaml and replace the grid with below snippet:

<Grid VerticalAlignment="Center" HorizontalAlignment="Center">

<StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal" >

<TextBlock Text="I" FontSize="32" Margin="10" VerticalAlignment="Center"></TextBlock>


<TextBlock x:Name="tbFontAwesome" Text="&#xf004;" FontFamily="{StaticResource FontAwesome}" Foreground="Red" FontSize="32" Margin="10" VerticalAlignment="Center"></TextBlock>
<TextBlock Text="Font Awesome" FontSize="32" Margin="10" VerticalAlignment="Center"></TextBlock>

</StackPanel>

</Grid>

Notice "Text" property of "tbFontAwesome" textblock, its the Unicode for Heart.
