The instructions are very sparse and don't seem to match up with any correct terminology in relation to current Drupal 8 version.

For Example:
"Content types -- click "Manage fields". Create a multi-value link field, make sure to choose "Predefined title" and input your key|value pairs of titles where key is the icon name (without prefix), and value title. If you have an icon named "icon-facebook" or "fa-facebook", write, "

The above instructions don't match up with any options that are present when Managing Fields/Adding Fields for Content Types.

You are right. Sorry about this. It was a direct copy/ paste from D7 likely ;)

If you could help out with proper English wordings, I noticed you assigned yourself, I would be grateful and incorporate it into new releases. Thanks!

I'm sorry I did not mean to assign myself.

I actually don't know how to use it? I can't follow the instructions so I can't get it to work?

I'll go ahead and write up some Drupal 8 module documentation for this.

Taking a first pass at documentation here: https://www.drupal.org/docs/8/modules/link-icon/link-icon-usage

As this is usage and not installation, this usage should probably be contained here. @auxiliaryjoel, does this look like something you're looking for?

@Webbeh, thank you! Added your documentation to project for now.

We may need to put this into README later. Patches are welcome. Thanks!
It looks good to me, but we'll need end users in case anything more to incorporate/ clarify.
