How install font-awesome via bower

In bower.json, add lines in dependencies ("components-font-awesome"):

{
  "name": "example",
  "version": "0.0.1",
  "dependencies": {
    "jquery": "~2.1.1",
    "bootstrap-sass-official": ">=3.3.0",
    "components-font-awesome": "^4.7.0"
  }
}

Run bower install, You will get files in the bower_components folder.

When you use font-awesome via bower it does not include the CSS when you build it. Try using:

bower install components-font-awesome --save

It should work just fine.
