View on Flathub ↗

This program allows an easy and intuitive way to add an icon on top of a folder to help you differentiate it better.

This program works best in combination with the app "Icon library" found on flathub and "Adwaita Colors" found on github

This program is written in Rust and Libadwaita and is my first attempt at creating an application

Another new update for Iconic, wow! A friend of mine was asking for a new feature, but I ignored him. But then another friend asked for the same feature, and you know, I always listen to my friends so went to work implementing this feature. What is this feature you might ask?

Iconic now removed parts of the top image which don't overlap with the bottom image! WOW. This even works for custom bottom images! I did go a bit overboard so now, if you enable advanced mode (press ctrl+a) you can add custom masks, let your creativity flow!! And the best part, I used no AI! All brainpower baby.

I also did some other things like:

  • Fixed bug with regenerating custom colored folder
  • Cleaned up small parts in the UI
  • Remember your advanced mode setting, even after a restart

Yeah,, the other things are not that interesting, sorry. But! I am thinking about making Iconic also work for other desktop environments. So stay tuned for that!

That was all, I hope you have a nice day!!
