About Easy icon theme
Easy icons
Easy icons is a simple icon theme for visual studio code. Easy icons has two goals:
Goal 1 - Make it easier to recognise files in the file explorer
Icons beside file names make it easier to find files by their extension.
Goal 2 - Make it easy to add missing icons
Easy icons has a simple directory structure to make customisation easy. To add your own icon to the package:
1. Add custom icon to the .\images\ folder. SVG icons are recommended, PNG is fine.
2. Open icon-assignments.json
3. In the *Icon definitions* section add an entry in the following way (replace icontag and customicon.svg):
4. In the *File associations* section, add an entry (replacing ext with the extension you wish customise and icontag with the icontag from step 3):
Current icon support
Currently only a small sample of icons is available. These are the icons that I see most commonly. I will be updating the package with icons (especially for languages) regularly, although I have tried to make it as simple as possible for you to add in your own icons as you need them. Enjoy!
