About

Bring VS Code's Material Icon Theme to GitHub — beautiful file and folder icons for every repository you browse.

  Full description:

  GitHub Web Icon Theme replaces GitHub's plain default file and folder icons with the iconic Material Icon Theme — the same icons loved by millions of VS Code users worldwide.

  ✦ WHAT IT DOES
  Every file and folder in a GitHub repository gets a rich, color-coded icon matched by file type and name. TypeScript files get the TypeScript icon. React components get the React
  icon. Docker configs, GitHub Actions workflows, Markdown docs — each one instantly recognizable at a glance.

  ✦ FEATURES
  • 900+ unique icons covering all major languages, frameworks, and tools
  • Works on the file tree, the sidebar file explorer, and diff views
  • Supports GitHub's single-page navigation — icons update as you browse
  • Lightweight: icons are loaded directly from the Material Icon Theme source
  • 30-day local license cache — no repeated server calls

  ✦ PERFECT FOR
  Developers who live on GitHub and want the same visual clarity they get in their editor. Stop squinting at identical grey icons and start navigating repositories the way they were
  meant to be seen.

  ✦ POWERED BY
  Material Icon Theme by Philipp Kief — the #1 icon theme on the VS Code Marketplace.
