How do I create a VS Code icon theme?

File Icon Themes#

Product icons are the visual expression of a brand and product, including their services and tools . Icons communicate the core idea and intent of a product in a simple, bold, and friendly way. While each icon is visually distinct, all product icons for a brand should be unified through concept and execution.

A product icon theme allows an extension to redefine these icons to give VS Code a custom appearance . Not covered by product icon themes are the file icons (covered by file icon themes) and icons contributed by extensions.
