pwa-asset-generator VS svgo

To generate icons, we use pwa-asset-generator. The first command generates a favicon icon with a transparent background, the second one creates all the necessary icons for a progressive web app, and the third one creates images for splash screens. The last command is optional, in case you have an icon for dark mode.

the easiest to use is still: https://github.com/onderceylan/pwa-asset-generator

Creating our home screen icons manually can be a very complicated task, but not to worry. We'll take advantage of a third-party module known as pwa-asset-generator to generate icons of different sizes from our main app icon inside the public directory with the command below:

If you want to create PWA, you will need icons for your application for different platforms. This package uses pwa-assets-generator to create icons from an image. It will automatically insert links to icons into the HTML of every page and in the manifest.json file along with generated icons. All you need is an image as a template for future icons. By default, it is a favicon.png under the src directory.

Thank you for the article. It is certainly alluring to reduce the number of generated images linked in the in PWA apps.

I use https://github.com/onderceylan/pwa-asset-generator to generate assets for PWA's(have left a message on this repo to read your article!)

image-shrinker is a simple, easy to use open source tool for shrinking images. Under the hood it uses pngquant, mozjpg, SVGO, and gifsicle. You can also install these tools individually if you need to compress some images. I often use pngquantafter exporting PNGs for web projects from Figma or similar tools. I literally run it like this:

In addition to the techniques we’ve discussed so far, there are optimization tools available that can further enhance SVG images. These tools, such as SVGO and ImageOptim, offer valuable features to reduce file size and clean up SVG markup, making it easier to standardize and optimize the overall performance of SVG assets.

Open the terminal and cd to the folder containing your SVG files and run the command inkscape *.svg --export-plain-svg --export-type=svg And Inkscape is going to save your files as plain SVG and append the word "_out" to them. Note : Plain SVG files are not optimized for the web, you should use SVGO or any other Node.js tool, there are a lot of them on MPM

Look at software you use and identify underlying libraries.

SVGO https://github.com/svg/svgo is used by many graphics software but hasn't seen donations commensurate with usage https://opencollective.com/svgo

There are still a lot of things cl-djula-svg is capable of doing. For the immediate future, I am looking at adding optimization capabilities something like what svgo is doing for svgr. If you know anything else needs to be done to improve the package, please open an issue in the repository.
