This is a very good idea. Thanks for sharing it. I'll definitely implement it for the next version.
For font-picker, we have enough horizontal space. I might add another sidebar where you can preview and search font-families. I'll redesign the UI for the next version.
Yeah, I tried a few combinations of dominant-baseline and text-anchor attributes, but couldn't find a combination that works for all emojis. I need to find SVG set of emojis to fix this problem instead of using them as a simple text. I'll look into this in the next version.
Emojis are using the native emoji list from your machine. I should check the emoji-picker documentation to see why this happening. I'll see if I can find an emoji picker that returns SVG. That would solve this issue definitely.
Regards sizing, yeah, the text size is fixed at 80px. I'll add a control to change the font-size in upcoming updates.
Glad you like it so far. Will try to improve the tool soon.
I might create a list like Google Font where you can preview all fonts for your Startup initials or search for a specific one. This should be a better UI than the current one I guess.
Exactly. Sorry about that, should have included this one before sharing it here. I have font-size support for version 2.0, but I might be able to update the tool during the weekend to add font-size and a couple more minor issues.
You can download the PNG version to create favicon for older browsers, but it's something we'll cover in the next version. There would be a "Download All" option with all required PNG sizes, and a sample html file with higher priority for the SVG version. So modern browsers would use the SVG version, and old browsers uses the PNG files.
As you can see in https://caniuse.com/link-icon-svg all modern browsers support SVG favicon right now (88% of users globally). You can also download the PNG version to support wider audience. In the next version, I'll include support to download PNG version for all required sizes, with a sample html page and manifest.json file.
This is actually a very good suggestion! Will save tons of time. Personally, to decide what font I'd like to use, I open Google Fonts, enter my letter (e.g. F), and then scroll down the list of fonts to pick my desire one.
I like you suggestion very much, I'll add this to my suggestion list and would implement this one for version 2.0.
