package-icons

Curated software icons/logos, keyed by package-manager ID (winget / Chocolatey), served via jsDelivr. A single controlled source of icon bytes, instead of hotlinking dozens of uncontrolled third-party hosts.

What this is for

For use in the following projects:

• Winhance → https://github.com/memstechtips/Winhance
• Winhance website → https://winhance.net (https://github.com/memstechtips/winhance-website)

In these projects the icons are used for identification purposes only — so users can visually recognise which applications they are about to install or remove. The icons are not used as branding, and no affiliation with, sponsorship by, or endorsement by the icon or trademark owners is implied. See THIRD-PARTY-NOTICES for the full notice.

The repo is public so the icons can be fetched at runtime via jsDelivr (and/or bundled at build time). It is not a general-purpose icon CDN — it exists to serve those projects — but the layout is deliberately app-agnostic so it can be reused.

Naming convention

Icons live under icons/ and are named by their package-manager ID, lowercased:

icons/<winget-or-choco-id>.png

• Lowercase always — GitHub and jsDelivr paths are case-sensitive, so normalizing avoids Notepad++ vs notepad++ mismatches.
• Use the full winget Package ID (e.g. notepad++.notepad++.png); fall back to the Chocolatey ID when there's no winget package.
• PNG, with a transparent background where the source provides one. Resolution is whatever the best available vendor asset ships — it is not normalized to a fixed size, so icons range from small (a vendor's only asset may be ~32px) up to a few thousand pixels.

How to consume

Always commit-pin in shipped code — never @main/@dev/@latest. Pinned URLs are immutable and cached, which is what guarantees the bytes can't change under users:

https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/memstechtips/package-icons@<commit-sha>/icons/<id>.png

Manifest

manifest.json lists every icon with its sha256 and the app's package-manager identities, so a consumer can map an app to its icon and detect when an icon's bytes change. Entry shape:

{
  "icons": {
    "notepad++.notepad++.png": {
      "sha256": "…",
      "name": "Notepad++",
      "winget": ["Notepad++.Notepad++"],
      "choco": "notepadplusplus"
    }
  }
}

msstore and downloadUrl are included when the app defines them. Pin a commit and download only the icons whose sha256 differs from your last sync.

Trademarks & removal requests

All product names, logos, and brands are the property of their respective owners. Icons are included solely to identify the corresponding software (nominative fair use); no affiliation or endorsement is implied. See THIRD-PARTY-NOTICES for the full notice.

If you are an individual or company that owns rights to a logo here and you want it removed, please open an issue and it will be taken down. No need to escalate elsewhere first — an issue is the fastest way to reach me.

Microsoft's Windows component icons (built-in Store apps, capabilities, and optional features) are intentionally not hosted here — those are resolved from the user's machine or Microsoft-served sources. Microsoft's downloadable applications (e.g. Visual Studio Code, PowerShell, PowerToys, Microsoft 365), however, are included like any other vendor's: they're installed the same way via a package manager and identified under the same nominative fair use.
