Hello, I'm considering using file-icons in my own open source project but I can't seem to find the LICENSE file? Is file-icons released under any license? If so, could you please add the LICENSE file?

The package.json seems to indicate that it is licensed under the MIT License:

https://github.com/file-icons/vscode/blob/d9221c77533345a136302cb04b2a3655a5278a9e/package.json#L65

I'm not sure that's enough. MIT license text specifically includes this sentence:

The above copyright notice and this permission notice shall be included in all copies or substantial portions of the Software.

@mnaglic The canonical repository is file-icons/icons, and the license is ISC (the same as MIT, but shorter). This repository (file-icons/vscode) is VSCode-specific and has very little material that's worthy of reuse.
