BREAKING

  • Dropped support for end-of-life FontAwesome versions (below v6), Node versions (below 20.x) and React versions (below 18.x)

  • Upgraded all other development dependencies to latest versions as of release date
  • Optimised FontAwesomeIcon by reducing per-render function calls and memory allocations
