Failed to load resource: net::ERR_NAME_NOT_RESOLVED font awesome

I'm trying to use the social media icons from font awesome to add to my website. I downloaded and dragged the font awesome folder into my project. Then i copied 

<link rel="stylesheet" href="path/to/font-awesome/css/font-awesome.min.css">

into the <head> of the html.

I researched that if I'm doing it locally I should add https://

So I did. (I've tried it without it and it still didn't work) Then i added

<i class="fa fa-twitter" aria-hidden="true"></i>

in the jumbotron.

The icon didn't show up. I inspected the elements and got this error

Failed to load resource: net::ERR_NAME_NOT_RESOLVED https://path/to/font-awesome/css/font-awesome.min.css

you do not need to put: path/to/ this is to tell you to put there your path!So check the name of folder you put your font-awesome in it and put the path , example : if you called your folder "fonts" your path should be: fonts/font-awesome/css/font-awesome.min.css

on your link to import css document make sure to add the attribute type="text/css" that might solve it :)

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="path/to/font-awesome/css/font-awesome.min.css">
