The icon sets MDI and FA are very good in design and have a rich set of different icons for many categories used for the Web.

The primary icon-set for J1 Template is {url-mdi–home}[Material Design Icons, {browser-window–new}], because it is extremely rich set providing more than 5900+ icons for the current version (v5.9.55).
