Description
The philosophy behind the serve-favicon module is rather outdated, almost nobody knows or cares about creating .ico
files. Everyone just puts .png
or .gif
files now (Mac and iOS ignore .ico
anyway). But omitting the favicon.ico
file makes the app crash in production
environment because of the serve-favicon
dependency.
Please consider removing this module and adding support for the modern icons required by the newer OSs, by adding these lines in _index.html
:
<link rel="icon" type="image/png" href="/favicon.png">
<link rel="icon" type="image/png" sizes="32x32" href="/favicon-32x32.png">
<link rel="icon" type="image/png" sizes="96x96" href="/favicon-96x96.png">
<link rel="apple-touch-icon" href="/favicon_120_retina.png">
<link rel="apple-touch-icon" sizes="152x152" href="/favicon_152_retina.png">
<link rel="apple-touch-icon" sizes="167x167" href="/favicon_167.png">
<link rel="apple-touch-icon" sizes="180x180" href="/favicon_180.png">
