Primary brand colors

[noonsleeper]

@daiyam I look on flathub's website and see this marked as a problem

those refer to the flatpak docs:

• https://docs.flathub.org/docs/for-app-authors/metainfo-guidelines/quality-guidelines/#has-primary-brand-colors
• https://docs.flathub.org/docs/for-app-authors/metainfo-guidelines/quality-guidelines/#good-brand-colors

VSCodium/Insiders has some brand colors? If not, can you help me on this?

[noonsleeper]

BTW sorry to bother on this

[daiyam]

Seems like they want the icon of the app (the circle one with white background)

[noonsleeper]

Then I look for what hex color for the background on that icon for the ligth primary, but what about the dark color?

[daiyam]

The correct icon is https://github.com/VSCodium/vscodium/blob/master/src/stable/resources/linux/code.png

Oh! https://raw.githubusercontent.com/VSCodium/vscodium/5e26c4a9c475ebf59052c2da916b80d471af739f/icons/stable/codium_cnl.svg is building block to build the macos and windows icons (https://github.com/VSCodium/vscodium/blob/ed0de172c4a459a3c3d3eaccb1fc34b22afdd454/icons/build_icons.sh#L41C50-L41C64)

It's already in the .deb at usr/share/codium-insiders/resources/app/resources/linux/code.png

[daiyam]

Damn! I've looked at something else... Anyway, the icons will need to be fixed.

I'll change the icon, but is there an SVG version?

No. But I could make one. Is it needed?

For the brand colors, I will get back to you later.

[noonsleeper]

Not needed right now, don't worry, I'll use the icon that you already give me, that has a resolution of 1024x1024 then will be good enough.

And later I'll try to add an SVG version on vscodium repo, I don't want to give you more work on this that the needed for the colors :wink:

Don't worry, the elements of the icons are already available at:

• https://github.com/VSCodium/icons/blob/main/templates/backgrounds/circle1/main.svg
• https://github.com/VSCodium/icons/blob/main/templates/colors/blue1/normal.conf
• https://github.com/VSCodium/icons/blob/main/templates/shapes/paulo22s/main.svg

Very useful indeed, It took me a while, but I built a clean replica of the png version with those assets https://github.com/VSCodium/vscodium/pull/1818 =).

[daiyam]

Ok, I've created the PR (in the right repos...) to add the "brand" colors.

[noonsleeper]

Thanks @daiyam!
