View icon details instead of downloading on click #788

I've only used fontawesome before feather but when clicking on icon on the website, I expected a details page to open instead of downloading the single file.

I have embedded the whole css file into my project and was looking for the icon name, as well as syntax. From the top of my head I remember it being <i class="image"></i> or was it different? I feel like it would be good if the website would reflect this again. Personally I find it unlikely that somebody would just want to download a single icon. And even if they do, I still think it shouldn't be the primary action when clicking an icon. Rather another option on the details page.

In my head it could contain the following information:

  • Preview (what the file looks like)
  • Download button
  • Icon name (i. e. image)
  • Icon as html/css (i. e. <i class="image"></i> or .image { content: '\di9s'; } (or whatever the code is)
  • how to use the icon (i. e. feather.replace();)

I hope I was able to formulate that well enough for you to understand what I mean.
