</div>

<script>
import Icon from 'fa-svelte'
import { faCircle } from '@fortawesome/free-solid-svg-icons/faCircle'

let icon = faCircle;

Configuring webpack

If you're using webpack with svelte-loader, make sure that you add "svelte" to resolve.mainFields in your webpack config. This ensures that webpack imports the uncompiled component (src/Icon.svelte) rather than the compiled version (index.js) — this is more efficient and will also resolve component crash in runtime.

For a working web pack example, look at examples/webpack
