🖼️ SvelteKit Favicon #

What is the SvelteKit favicon? Favicons aren't unique to SvelteKit, they are just the little icon which appears in the browser, on the tab itself showing your site or brand logo. They are useful to help users quickly see which tab is which when they have many tabs open. In this video we see it only takes a moment to add a favicon to your SvelteKit app. All you need to follow along is your logo in a PNG file. You can use a .ico file instead though they are really only needed if you must have backwards compatibility with very old versions of Internet Explorer. In the video we create a skeleton app from scratch, though the process is similar if you are adding a favicon to an existing project. If you're reading to push pack, then let's get going!
