Easy icons

Easy icons is a simple icon theme for visual studio code. Easy icons has two goals:

Goal 1 - Make it easier to recognise files in the file explorer

Icons beside file names make it easier to find files by their extension.

Goal 2 - Make it easy to add missing icons

Easy icons has a simple directory structure to make customisation easy. To add your own icon to the package:

1. Add custom icon to the .\images\ folder. SVG icons are recommended, PNG is fine.

2. Open icon-assignments.json

3. In the Icon definitions section add an entry in the following way (replace icontag and customicon.svg):

    "_icontag": {"iconPath": "./icons/customicon.svg"},

4. In the File associations section, add an entry (replacing ext with the extension you wish customise and icontag with the icontag from step 3):

    "ext": "_icontag",

Current icon support

Currently only a small sample of icons is available. These are the icons that I see most commonly. I will be updating the package with icons (especially for languages) regularly, although I have tried to make it as simple as possible for you to add in your own icons as you need them.
Enjoy!
