What is the latest version that works in Java 8 about ikonli HOT 4 CLOSED

Hi @renatoathaydes, Ikonli 2.4.0 is the last version compatible with JDK8. I'm working on an option to bring back JDK8 compatibility for version 12.0.0 but it's not there yet.

That's fine @aalmiray it works perfectly now! This is such a valuable lib!! Thanks for making it.
I had been embedding FontAwesome in my jar by manually downloading it... With version 5, it was a nightmare to get it working in all OSs consistently - it would work in Linux, but not on Mac or Windows... then I fixed Mac, it wouldn't work on Linux... something really fishy going on... but anyway, I am now using your lib with the Themify pack and my app looks beautiful.

Just one detail: why are the CSS files and all fonts being included in the pack jar? I removed most of that from my fat jar and it still works fine (I keep only the woff file for Themify). Might be worth investigating if you could remove those (at least, I like to keep my jar slim - LogFX is still around 320KB which is quite good for all it does).

Correction: I keep only the ttf file! Not the woff.

I’m including all those files because technically Ikonli redistributes work made by others and thus has to be compliant with licensing.

The good thing is that consumers can decide for themselves to repackage said resources, either using shade (Maven) or shadow (Gradle).
