Icon Files for WebDrop Bridge

This directory should contain application icon files for the build process.

Required Icons

Windows

app.ico - 256x256 or larger, ICO format
- Used by PyInstaller and Windows installer
- Can contain multiple resolutions (16, 32, 48, 64, 128, 256)

macOS

app.icns - Apple icon set
- Required for macOS .app bundle
- Must include at least: 16, 32, 48, 64, 128, 256, 512, 1024px sizes
- Tools: iconutil on macOS, or png2icns

Creating Icons

From PNG on macOS:

png2icns resources/icons/app.icns resources/icons/app-1024.png

From Multiple PNGs on macOS:

mkdir app.iconset
# Add PNG files: 16x16, 32x32, 64x64, 128x128, 256x256, 512x512, 1024x1024
iconutil -c icns app.iconset -o resources/icons/app.icns

Creating ICO from PNG on Windows:

Use tools like: ImageMagick, GIMP, or online converters
Ensure high quality for professional appearance

Current Status

⚠️ Icon files are currently missing.

The build scripts will work without them (PyInstaller uses default icon)
Replace these files before distribution for professional appearance

Design Guidelines

Use consistent branding/color scheme
Ensure visibility at small sizes (16x16)
Include transparency for professional look
Test on both light and dark backgrounds (macOS)
