Breath a bit of style into GitHub's pragmatic user interface with the help of this nifty Chrome extension that adds file-specific icons. #GitHub Icons #Change GitHub Icon #GitHub Preview #GitHub #Icon #Changer
if you're using GitHub on a daily basis, you might agree that as functional and as snappy as the repository hosting platform's UI is, it could do with a few improvements.
There are various extensions that are capable of improving GitHub's functionality, yet here's one that's more focused on improving the user-experience through a bit of style, even though not by a significant margin, we'll admit.
Dubbed File Icons for GitHub and GitLab, this nifty extension is available for both Chrome and Firefox, and it replaces GitHub's generic icon set with file-specific stylish and modern icons.
We'll focus more on the Chrome extension, even though the basic functionality is the same for both. For starters, just like most extensions, it can be deployed on your Chrome browser with no more than a single mouse click from the Chrome Web Store.
Once installed, the extension should work all on its own without any type of user intervention on your part. However, it's possible that you might find that it doesn't work as expected right after the installation. As we have discovered during our tests, this slight annoyance can be dealt with by simply relaunching Chrome.
Taking everything into account, even though it might not be impressive in any meaningful way, this little extension improves GitHub's UI by offering you a more stylish set of file-specific icons by replacing the dull, default ones.
Even though it might be somewhat of a stretch, this might also help you find specific files a little bit faster.
