## Overview

The SVG Favicon Generator converts your vector or raster logos into a complete, production-ready favicon package.

- **Background Color** (color)
- **Fit Mode** (select)

- When converting a high-resolution SVG or PNG logo into a perfectly padded, multi-resolution ICO file for legacy browser support.

## How it works

## Frequently asked questions

### What file formats are supported for the source logo?

You can upload SVG, PNG, JPEG, or WebP images up to 20MB in size.

### What is included in the downloaded ZIP file?

The ZIP includes an ICO file, multiple PNG sizes, an Apple Touch Icon, a site.webmanifest file, and an HTML snippet for easy integration.

### What is the difference between contain and cover fit modes?

The 'Contain' mode scales your logo to fit entirely within the icon boundaries, while 'Cover' scales it to fill the entire background, which may crop the edges of the image.

### How do I change the background color of my favicon?

You can use the Background Color hex picker to set a specific color behind your logo. This is especially useful for transparent SVG or PNG files.

### What is the web manifest used for?

The site.webmanifest file provides metadata like your site name and theme color, allowing mobile users to install your website as an app on their home screen with the correct icon.
