Bootstrap 3 Glyphicons CDN

With the recent release of bootstrap 3, and the glyphicons being merged back to the main Bootstrap repo, Bootstrap CDN is now serving the complete Bootstrap 3.0 css including Glyphicons. The Bootstrap css reference is all you need to include: Glyphicons and its dependencies are on relative paths on the CDN site and are referenced in bootstrap.min.css.

In html:

<link href="//netdna.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.0.0/css/bootstrap.min.css" rel="stylesheet">

In css:

 @import url("//netdna.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.0.0/css/bootstrap.min.css");

Here is a working demo.

Note that you have to use .glyphicon classes instead of .icon:

Example:

<span class="glyphicon glyphicon-heart"></span>

Also note that you would still need to include bootstrap.min.js for usage of Bootstrap JavaScript components, see Bootstrap CDN for url.

If you want to use the Glyphicons separately, you can do that by directly referencing the Glyphicons css on Bootstrap CDN.

In html:

<link href="//netdna.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.0.0/css/bootstrap-glyphicons.css" rel="stylesheet">

In css:

@import url("//netdna.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.0.0/css/bootstrap-glyphicons.css");

Since the css file already includes all the needed Glyphicons dependencies (which are in a relative path on the Bootstrap CDN site), adding the css file is all there is to do to start using Glyphicons.

Here is a working demo of the Glyphicons without Bootstrap.
