Example 1: This is the basic example that illustrates how to use the Icons

app.component.html

<div id='gfg'>
    <h2>GeeksforGeeks</h2>
    <h4>Angular MDBootstrap Icons</h4>
    <br />
    <mdb-icon fab icon="angular" 
        class="green-text pr-2" size='4x'>
    </mdb-icon>Angular
    <br>
    <mdb-icon fab icon="react" 
        class="green-text pr-2" size='4x'>
    </mdb-icon>React
    <br>
    <mdb-icon fab icon="html5" 
        class="green-text pr-2" size='4x'>
    </mdb-icon>HTML5
    <br>
    <mdb-icon fab icon="js" 
        class="green-text pr-2" size='4x'>
    </mdb-icon>JS
    <br>
    <mdb-icon fab icon="mdb" 
        class="green-text pr-2" size='4x'>
    </mdb-icon>MDB
</div>

app.component.ts

import { Component } from '@angular/core';

@Component({
  selector: 'app-root',
  templateUrl: './app.component.html',
  styleUrls: ['./app.component.css']
})
export class AppComponent { }

app.module.ts

import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser';
import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';
import { BrowserAnimationsModule } from 
    '@angular/platform-browser/animations';

import { AppComponent } from './app.component';

import { MDBBootstrapModule } from 'angular-bootstrap-md';
import { FormsModule } from '@angular/forms';

@NgModule({
  declarations: [
    AppComponent
  ],
  imports: [
    BrowserModule,
    BrowserAnimationsModule,
    MDBBootstrapModule.forRoot(),
    FormsModule,
  ],
  providers: [],
  bootstrap: [AppComponent]
})
export class AppModule { }

Output:

Example 2: In this example, we will learn how to add icons in a button.

    <h4>Angular MDBootstrap Icons</h4>
    <br />
    <button type="button" mdbBtn size='sm' 
        floating="true" color="blue">

        floating="true" size="sm" color="orange">
        MDB<mdb-icon fab icon="mdb" 
            class="green-text pr-2" size='4x'>
        </mdb-icon>
    </button>
    
    <button type="button" mdbBtn rounded="true"

            class="green-text pr-2" size='4x'>
        </mdb-icon>
    </button>
</div>
