I believe everything listed here is available for use: [Find the Perfect Icon for Your Project in Font Awesome 5 | Font Awesome](https://fontawesome.com/v5/search?o=r&m=free)

Though some icons require an additional step… for icons we don’t use in Discourse by default the icon names needs to be added to the `Svg icons` theme setting.

If you really want to be specific, all the icons we use in Discourse by default are listed here: [discourse/lib/svg\_sprite.rb at da0d20d4a99aab40bd08bf133a425be413521d5a · discourse/discourse · GitHub](https://github.com/discourse/discourse/blob/da0d20d4a99aab40bd08bf133a425be413521d5a/lib/svg_sprite.rb#L9)

And all the icons available for use in themes (via the `svg icons` setting) are in this directory: [discourse/vendor/assets/svg-icons at main · discourse/discourse · GitHub](https://github.com/discourse/discourse/tree/main/vendor/assets/svg-icons)

Viewing the SVG files in github isn’t really helpful, because you’ll see a big white box:

but you can click the raw button and view the page source, the icon name is the `symbol`’s `id`
