feat(plugin): CustomAppIcons

[SerStars]

Add/upload your own custom (In-)App Icon(s)

• Following the steps in the plugin settings ("How to use?" header) should explain it all how you can use the plugin

[wavedevgit]

Nice plugin (i contributed)

Can't you do this with CS? is it particularly useful?

You technically can use css, but this add's it to the menu, and css will break faster, because discord css classes names get's changed a lot

[Sqaaakoi]

Yeah it can be done with CSS

At this point though we need a proper way of LOCALLY embedding images in custom quick css

This is why I believe a CSS postprocessor selector that effectively calls findByProps with all the arguments and returns the value of the first item with all spaces replaced with . so it's a class selector would be useful

[Vendicated]

to embed your image, encode it as data uri and use that. or upload it to imgur, github, or whatever else and link it

you can use attribute selectors instead of hardcoding class hashes. this way your css will only break if discord completely rewrites the ui

[wavedevgit]

Yea

[wavedevgit]

but this make's it easier instead of using css, because for some people they dont know how to write css

[Sqaaakoi]

css is not that hard

also, the css snippets channel exists

[wavedevgit]

Yea, but if you use css, it wont be easy to change the icons, this plugin saves the icons, so you can switch between them anytime

[TheKodeToad]

Frequently switching between your own icons a very niche use-case

[nyakowint]

Vencord precedent/rule of thumb is to utilize css as opposed to plugins whenever possible, and like toad said switching between icons frequently enough to need this is pretty niche

[wavedevgit]

but there is people that wont understand css, having a ui for this is much better & gives a better experience

[Vendicated]

if we went by the philosophy of "plugin is easier than css" then we'd have tons of plugins for everything and be extremely bloated

just write an easy to use snippet and tell people how to use it

if they can't figure it out, skill issue

[Vendicated]

just make it user friendly, like this. if someone cant figure that out they probably wouldnt be able to install vencord either

[wavedevgit]

What about userbg plugin, it can be done using css right? why it got accepted? & what about fake profile themes plugin, it can be also done using css? why it got accepted???
