See site for full explanation but TLDR from site is:
Instead of serving dozens of icons, all you need is just five icons and one JSON file.
For the browser using HTML:
<link rel="icon" href="/favicon.ico" sizes="32x32"> <link rel="icon" href="/icon.svg" type="image/svg+xml"> <link rel="apple-touch-icon" href="/apple-touch-icon.png"><!-- 180×180 -->If you’re making a PWA (Progressive Web App), also add this to the HTML:
<link rel="manifest" href="/manifest.webmanifest">And a file with the web app manifest:
// manifest.webmanifest { "icons": [ { "src": "/icon-192.png", "type": "image/png", "sizes": "192x192" }, { "src": "/icon-mask.png", "type": "image/png", "sizes": "512x512", "purpose": "maskable" }, { "src": "/icon-512.png", "type": "image/png", "sizes": "512x512" } ] }Maskable icons should have bigger paddings. The safe zone is a 409×409 circle. Use maskable.app to check your icon.
