Font Awesome icons on React Js Project

According to Font Awesome documentation, I followed this example below but didn't get any result. I used font awesome a lot of time on my html project in the past. But this is for the first time I am using it on my React Application. How can I get the icons from font awesome on my react application?

  import React from 'react'
  import { FontAwesomeIcon } from '@fortawesome/react-fontawesome'

  export const Beverage = () => (
    <div>
      <FontAwesomeIcon icon="check-square" />
      Your <FontAwesomeIcon icon="coffee" /> is hot and ready!
    </div>
  )

There is my package.json dependencies.

"dependencies": {
    "@fortawesome/fontawesome-svg-core": "^6.1.2",
    "@fortawesome/free-solid-svg-icons": "^6.1.2",
    "@fortawesome/react-fontawesome": "^0.2.0",
    "@testing-library/jest-dom": "^5.16.5",
    "@testing-library/react": "^13.3.0",
    "@testing-library/user-event": "^13.5.0",
    "axios": "^0.27.2",
    "bootstrap": "^5.2.0",
    "formik": "^2.2.9",
    "jquery": "^3.6.0",
    "react": "^18.2.0",
    "react-dom": "^18.2.0",
    "react-redux": "^8.0.2",
    "react-router": "^6.3.0",
    "react-router-dom": "^6.3.0",
    "react-scripts": "5.0.1",
    "redux": "^4.2.0",
    "redux-thunk": "^2.4.1",
    "web-vitals": "^2.1.4"
  }

Create Icons.js/jsx

import { library } from '@fortawesome/fontawesome-svg-core';
import { fas } from '@fortawesome/free-solid-svg-icons';
import { fab } from '@fortawesome/free-brands-svg-icons';
import { far } from '@fortawesome/free-regular-svg-icons';

Import the Icons in App.js and Import FontAwesome

import './resources/Icons.jsx';
import { FontAwesomeIcon } from "@fortawesome/react-fontawesome";
