I think it's weird that the default file icon theme shows that all Javascript files are React files now. Can that be changed without having to download a new theme?
I'm not even using React in this project.
Hope this solves your issue. In the bottom right side of your VSC tool, click on javascript react and it opens up a dropdown list, In that please select Javascript option. I have attached a screenshot of VSC code tool image for your reference.
Info/Problem.
Using Sharepoint online with a dark/black theme.
On the homepage, I am using the document library previewer web part.
The font for URL's/Hyperlinks is defaulting to black so they aren't visible on the black background.
Attempting to change the font color of these URL's using CSS.
What I've tried
I've used the Dev Tools in Chrome to locate and change the CSS to make the font color white. This works, but the changes don't save after I refresh the page.
Downloaded and Installed Sharepoint Designer and copied the style element to a txt file stored in the style library. I'm not sure how or where to insert this file in Sharepoint designer to apply to to my site
The ideal solution would be editing the CSS for the homepage and then saving it permanently. I feel like I've gotten most of the way there, I just can't figure out how to save/apply my changes.
If it isn't already obvious, I'm not much of a developer so I'm a bit out of my depth here.
I don't think you can customize the css of existing webpart using designer. You have to create your own previewer using spfx. there are some webparts you can checkout.
Did you try to add the CSS style code into Script Editor web part in the home page?
If you use modern page, check the solution below.
react-script-editor
Here is my Wordpress website : http://vps319156.ovh.net/
The icons are not displaying correctly since I upload a new plugin Visual line for Visual Composer.
I desinstalled the plugin and try to reinstall the font but it did not work.
The weird part is that I have one Icon working...
I tried many solutions from the web and could not find out one that is workable in my case..
You have the plugin font-awesome that is overriding iconfont.css definitions and so on, the [class^="icon-"].
It seems that the fontawesome related fonts are not found in the plugin font-awesome.
The plugins/font-awesome/assets/font-awesome.min.css couldn't find the font ../fonts/fontawesome-webfont.eot
Correct the path or copy the fonts file at this place.
In the browser dev tools, when you unclick fontawesome class, icons are display, it's just the enqueue priority to modify, it depends if you want to display, font-awesome icons or iconfonts.css icons.
I am making a React Native app. I would like to customize the app icon (meaning the icon that you click on to start the app). I have Googled this, but I keep finding different types of icons that refer to different things. How do I add these types of icons to the app?
iOS Icons
Set AppIcon in Images.xcassets.
Add 9 different size icons:
29pt
29pt*2
29pt*3
40pt*2
40pt*3
57pt
57pt*2
60pt*2
60pt*3.
Images.xcassets will look like this:
Android Icons
Put ic_launcher.png in folders [ProjectDirectory]/android/app/src/main/res/mipmap-*/.
72*72 ic_launcher.png in mipmap-hdpi.
48*48 ic_launcher.png in mipmap-mdpi.
96*96 ic_launcher.png in mipmap-xhdpi.
144*144 ic_launcher.png in mipmap-xxhdpi.
192*192 ic_launcher.png in mipmap-xxxhdpi.
Update 2019 Android
The latest versions of react native also supports round icon. For this particular case, you have two choices:
A. Add round icons:
In each mipmap folder, add additionally to the ic_launcher.png file also a round version called ic_launcher_round.png with the same size.
B. Remove round icons:
Inside yourProjectFolder/android/app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml remove the line android:roundIcon="#mipmap/ic_launcher_round"and save it.
Otherwhise the build throws an error.
I wrote a generator to automatically generate icons for your react native app from a single icon file. It generates your assets and it also adds them correctly to your ios and android project:
Update (04/09/2019)
We revamped our generator to be up to date with the ecosystem standards. You can now use #bam.tech/react-native-make.
You can install it using: yarn add #bam.tech/react-native-make in the react-native project
To use it react-native set-icon --path <path_to_png> --background <icon_background_color> --platform <android|ios>
And... that's it! Hope it can be useful for others :)
Recommendations:
1024x1024 base image
No transparent background for iOS
An icon which follows adaptive icons guidelines for Android
Here are some improvements over the previous tool: 🥳
No Yeoman dependency, it is now a react-native-cli plugin
No Image Magick dependency
Creates Adaptive icons for Android
Adds missing icons sizes for iOS
I would use a service to scale the icon correctly. http://makeappicon.com/ seems good. Use a image on the larger size as scaling up a smaller image can lead to the larger icons being pixelated. That site will give you sizes for both iOS and Android.
From there its just a matter of setting the icon like you would a regular native app.

Set icon for Android application
I was able to add an app icon to my react-native android project by following this guy's advice and using Android Asset Studio
Here it is, transcribed in case the link goes dead:
How to upload an Application Icon in React-Native Android
1) Upload your image to Android Asset Studio.
Pick whatever effects you’d like to apply. The tool generates a zip file for you. Click Download .Zip.
2) Unzip the file on your machine. Then drag over the images you want to your /android/app/src/main/res/ folder. Make sure to put each image in the right subfolder mipmap-{hdpi, mdpi, xhdpi, xxhdpi, xxxhdpi}.
3) Do not (as I originally did) naively drag and drop the whole folder over your res folder. As you may be removing your /res/values/{strings,styles}.xml files altogether.
Android Studio has a very handy icon asset wizard called Image Asset Studio (user guide here). It's quite self explainatory, and has a few handy effects and it's built right in:
Screenshot from Android Studio 4.1.3 on Windows 10
Someone made a very easy to use tool just for this task: https://www.npmjs.com/package/app-icon
This simple tool allows you to create a single icon in your react-native project, then create icons of all required sizes from it. It currently works for iOS and Android.
I've used it. Made a 512x512 png and then ran that tool and boom, done. Super easy.
You'll need different sized icons for iOS and Android, like Rockvic said. In addition, I recommend this site for generating different sized icons if anybody is interested. You don't need to download anything and it works perfectly.

Hope it helps.
This is helpful for people struggling to find better site to generate icons and splashscreen

Steps Android App icons:
Go to this website https://appicon.co/
Add image their and generate icons, it should be downloaded
Unzip the folder
Inside their copy all the folders in AppIcons/android/ (i.e. Folder
names: mipmap-xxxhdpi,mipmap-xxhdpi,mipmap-xhdpi,mipmap-hdpi,mipmap-mdpi)
paste above copied folders into {rootFolder}/android/app/src/main/res/
and replace existing ones
Remove this line from AndroidManifest.xml
(android:roundIcon="#mipmap/ic_launcher_round")
Icons are successfully added
Change IOS App icons:
Go to this website https://appicon.co/
Add image their and generate icons, it should be downloaded
Unzip the folder
Inside their copy all the folders in AppIcons/Assets.xcassets/ (i.e.
AppIcon.appiconset folder)
paste the AppIcon.appiconset folder into
{rootFolder}/ios/{projectname}/Images.xcassets/ and replace existing one
Icons are successfully added
If you're using expo just place an 1024 x 1024 png file in your project and
add an icon property to your app.json i.e. "icon": "./src/assets/icon.png"

For setting the App launch icon for Android Devices in a React-Native project:
Take a high resolution image of your logo and place it inside your project directory. Preferably in [Project-DIR]/android/app/src/main/res/
Open Android Studio and run your React-native project.
In Android Studio's Project window, select the Android view
Right-click the res folder and select New > Image Asset
A "Configure Image Asset" window will open; Locate your high resolution image and place set it as your "Foreground layer".
Set your "Background Layer" if applicable
Click "Next" and continue to finish.
Run your application again to see the new app launch icon.
Official documentation can be found here: https://developer.android.com/studio/write/image-asset-studio

Since the Almouro's Answer is no longer maintained
Android and iOS icon
You can now generate icons with one command both for iOS and Android with rounded icon:
npx icon-set-creator create ./path/to/icon.png
I highly recommend using an icon with a size of at least 1024x1024 pixels
Adaptive Android icon
npx icon-set-creator create -b <background> -f <foreground> -A
background - The color (E.g. "#ffffff") or image asset (E.g. "assets/images/christmas-background.png")
foreground - The image asset (E.g. "assets/images/christmas-foreground.png")
I personally use this link to generate my desired icons https://appicon.co/
And for importing inside the application.
For IOS Setup
Click on your project from Xcode ==>
then on the left side you will see your click on that ==>
Now you will see subfile name Images.xcassets click on that ==>
you icons size will be displayed on the right hand window ==>
simply drag and drop the icons which we have generated from https://appicon.co/ ==>
and your IOS ICON SETUP IS DONE.
Moving to Android
We will go to Android ==> app ==> src ==> main ==> res
Here you will various folders named mipmap-hdpi till xxxhdpi ==>
Drag the icons from the specific folder to your project specific folder.
Happy coding!
To import icons on React Native if you want the icons without having the pictures, then react-native-vector-icons would be the best one. You can use it if you don't want to download the icons and use it in your project.
I would like to suggest to use react-native-vector-icons to import icons to your project. As you use vector icons, you don't need to worry much on icon scaling side. While using the package you are able to use all popular icon set such as fontawesome, ionicons etc..
Besides these iconsets you can also bring your own icons too to your react-native project by packing your icons as a ttf file and you can import that ttf directly to both android and ios project. You can utilise the same react-native-vector-icons library to manage those icons
Here is a detailed procedure to setup custom icons
https://medium.com/bam-tech/add-custom-icons-to-your-react-native-application-f039c244386c
You can import react-native-elements and use the font-awesome icons to your react native app
Install
npm install --save react-native-elements
then import that where you want to use icons
import { Icon } from 'react-native-elements'
Use it like
render() {
return(
<Icon
reverse
name='ios-american-football'
type='ionicon'
color='#517fa4'
/>
);
}
Is there any tool available wherein I may open a CSS file and see a color box next to each color and background-color rules?
There's plenty. You can do this in Visual Studio with the Web Essentials plugin. Chrome Developer Tools does it. If you use Sublime Text there's a package for that: https://github.com/a-sk/livecss. If you use Notepad++ there's plenty of plugins: http://npp.campulka.net/
It's a matter of a simple Google Search and you'll find want you need.
