Hi, I’m new to Typst, and I’ve been trying to use the modern-cv template for my own CV. However, when I set up the template, I am getting certain package warnings in the Typst editor which seem to be font family related – this means that the icons for font awesome for GitHub and LinkedIn for example are not rendering correctly and I’m not sure how exactly I can resolve them. Any help in this matter would be greatly appreciated!
Hi. The warning about missing fonts can be fixed by adding missing font files into the project. Other package-related warnings are usually due to something being outdated, so the only fix is to use a custom patched version of the package or ask the package author to fix them and make a new version.
See the readme: modern-cv – Typst Universe

To use the fontawesome icons in the web app, add a
fontsfolder to your project and upload theotffiles from the fontawesome download to this folder like so:
fontawesome – Typst Universe has more info on this too.
Thank you so much, this is incredibly helpful, I completely missed this!
