VSCode Icon Generator

An icon generator that allows you to easily change the background and accent colour online. Made by DJDMorrison

How to Install

Mac OS:

Easiest way to change the icons is by using https://freemacsoft.net/liteicon/. Just Drag and Drop the custom icon and hit Apply Changes.

Copy the .icns file you'd like to use. Find VS Code in your Applications folder, right click the icon and select Get Info. Click the icon in the top right corner so that a blue highlight appears around it. ⌘ + V to paste the new icon in. It may take a few restarts of VS Code for the icon to take.

If for some reason that doesn't work, then dragging the .icns to the icon (in the top left) of the info pane, until you see the green plus sign and then dropping it works.

Windows:

Right click on the shortcut App Icon, select properties and then shortcut tab and then change icon button.

Linux:

I think this works, but not sure https://bluesabre.org/projects/menulibre/
