Installation
Summary

Complete favicon package generation from logos, text, or brand colours in all required formats.

  • Produces favicon.svg, favicon.ico, apple-touch-icon.png, icon-192/512.png, and web manifest with HTML integration code
  • Supports three creation approaches: extracting icons from existing logos, generating monograms from initials, or using branded shapes (circle, rounded square, shield, hexagon)
  • Requires ImageMagick for format conversion; includes fallback to favicon.io for users without local ImageMagick installation
  • Enforces critical rules for iOS compatibility (solid backgrounds to avoid black squares) and legibility at small sizes (bold fonts, 16x16 testing)
