METHOD & PRACTICAL GUIDANCE

Get a result you can use.

Design for sixteen pixels.

A detailed photograph may look fine at 512 px and become unclear at 16 px. Start with a simple symbol and inspect the native-size previews. Fit logo preserves the whole image with padding; Fill square crops the image to cover the square. Insets can stop the symbol touching the edge.

Choose a background deliberately.

Transparent corners work well for many logos, but pale details can disappear against a light browser interface. Preview on light and dark surfaces. Rounded corners affect the artwork itself; each platform may also apply its own mask. The previews help you spot a clipped symbol before downloading.

Install the generated set.

The archive includes PNG sizes, a multi-size ICO, a web manifest and an installation guide. Copy the files to the paths used by your site and apply the provided head tags. Adjust manifest names and paths to your project. Browsers may cache an old icon, so check the deployed paths and refresh when testing.

A favicon set supplies image assets; it does not by itself make a website installable or satisfy all progressive web app requirements. How we document our tools

A PRACTICAL EXAMPLE

Know what a useful result looks like.

Produce a consistent icon package for a website.

Try this workflow

Start with: A self-owned logo on a transparent canvas.
Set up: Choose Fit logo, add safe padding, inspect 16 px and 32 px previews.
What to expect: The complete ZIP includes PNG sizes, a multi-size ICO, a manifest and installation instructions. Composition settings apply to all sizes.

Check before using the result

Check the smallest previews first.
Update paths if your website lives in a subdirectory.

When the result needs work

Fine details that look good at 512 px may vanish at 16 px. Simplify the original logo instead of relying on sharpening to recover tiny shapes.
