What would be the Ion base class in Ionic 4?

Hello! I am migrating to Ionic 4 and the code I am translating is using a class that extends the Ion class, previously in ‘ionic-angular’.

However, I do not see the Ion base class in the @ionic/angular package. Which class should I extend in order to create a customized ion component?

Here is the ionic 3 class:

@Component({
  selector: "fa-icon",
  template: ""
})
export class FaIconComponent extends Ion implements OnChanges {
  @Input() name: string;
  @Input() size: string;

  @Input("fixed-width")
  set fixedWidth(fixedWidth: string) {
    this.setElementClass("fa-fw", this.isTrueProperty(fixedWidth));
  }

  constructor(config: Config, elementRef: ElementRef, renderer: Renderer) {
    super(config, elementRef, renderer, "fa");
  }

  ngOnChanges(changes: SimpleChanges): void {
    if (changes.name) {
      this.unsetPrevAndSetCurrentClass(changes.name);
    }
    if (changes.size) {
      this.unsetPrevAndSetCurrentClass(changes.size);
    }
  }

  isTrueProperty(val: any): boolean {
    if (typeof val === "string") {
      val = val.toLowerCase().trim();
      return (val === "true" || val === "on" || val === "");
    }
    return !!val;
  };

  unsetPrevAndSetCurrentClass(change: SimpleChange) {
    this.setElementClass("fa-" + change.previousValue, false);
    this.setElementClass("fa-" + change.currentValue, true);
  }
}
