Create a font awesome icon picker easily using font awesome plugin in bootstrap. If you are using bootstrap and you have something knowledge of JS then you can do it quickly in your web page. I have done it using fontawesome-iconpicker.min.css and fontawesome-iconpicker.js lick in my local sever(xampp).

fontawesome-iconpicker.js is a simple plugin which allows the user to select Font Awesome icons from a filterable dropdown popup, Where you can search any Font Awesome icons and choose anyone that icon class show in your input box. When an icon is selected, the plugin will automatically fill the input field with the corresponding icon class. If you wish, you can store those icon class into the database and show anywhere on your page to fetch icon class from the database.
