Font awesome icons not showing up in Angular 5

I installed it according to the instructions. First I've typed

npm install --save font-awesome angular-font-awesome

And it installed everything correctly. Then I changed in .angular-cli.json to contain the css like so:

 "styles": [
    "styles.css",
    "../node_modules/font-awesome/css/font-awesome.min.css"
  ],

And when I type this in the html: <span class="fas fa-chevron-left"></span>

It does not show anything at all for it.

I don't have errors either but in sources I can't find anything related to font awesome.

This may not be the correct fix, but i had to use this in index.html to get the icons working.

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/font-awesome/4.7.0/css/font-awesome.min.css" />

According to the documentation in npm, the above link is needed only if you are NOT using angular-cli
