I've read, from official docs, that Glyphicons were dropped from Bootstrap 4.
Today, in my searching for implementing checbox button, I've found one snippet that I appreciate very much:
Snippet for Checkbox 3.0
The problem is that this version is for Bootstrap 3.0, where Glyph were supported yet.
So I've 2 question:
1 - Wich is a good alternative to Glyphicons? Or there is a way to use them yet?
The best alternative IMHO: http://fontawesome.io/icons/
2 - How I may change the html and js snippet above to make it working wuth Bootstrap 4?
jQuery Checkbox Buttons - Bootstrap 4
You need to change the JS:
settings = {
on: {
icon: 'fa fa-square-o'
},
off: {
icon: 'fa fa-check-square-o'
}
};
And the css class .hidden is now deprecated so Bootstrap recommends to use style="display: none" instead.
I agree @nerijunior Font Awesome icons is the best alternative, here is how, tested:
To use Font Awesome icons, add the following to your HTML page (No downloading or installation is required) Given Example below:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<title>Bootstrap Example</title>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://use.fontawesome.com/releases/v5.6.3/css/all.css" integrity="sha384-UHRtZLI+pbxtHCWp1t77Bi1L4ZtiqrqD80Kn4Z8NTSRyMA2Fd33n5dQ8lWUE00s/" crossorigin="anonymous">
</head>
<body>
<div class="container">
<h1>My Icons <i class="fas fa-heart"></i></h1>
<p>An icon along with some text: <i class="fas fa-thumbs-up"></i></p>
</div>
<div class="container">
<p>Others:</p>
<i class="fas fa-cloud"></i>
<i class="fas fa-coffee"></i>
<i class="fas fa-car"></i>
<i class="fas fa-file"></i>
