Project overview

The project aimed to create a web tool similar in structure to realfavicongenerator.net, allowing users to generate favicons from uploaded images (PNG, JPEG, SVG, etc.). Users could preview and customize favicons for different platforms (iOS, Android, Windows, macOS) and download the generated assets with HTML embed code.

The tool includes advanced features like cropping, compression, custom margins, and automatic cleanup of generated files.

Key features included image upload with drag & drop, a confirmation modal with image dimensions, a cropping tool for non-square images, simulation previews for multiple platforms (desktop, iOS, Android, etc.), and customization settings (background, margin, compression, versioning). Additionally, it offered a ZIP download with the full favicon package and HTML code, SVG handling with fallback PNG conversion, admin configuration via JSON (no backend panel), an auto-delete function for generated data, and a multi-step interface matching the RFG structure.

The client expressed satisfaction with the development process and flexibility of collaboration, emphasizing the need for a minimalistic approach and maintaining creative freedom. Although technical issues arose, 2410 remained responsive, implementing feedback and updates quickly. The client appreciated the strong 'core' of the system, clear communication, and the eventual delivery of a functional tool ready for further refinement on their end.
