Show HN: Minimal SVG to Favicon Generator

i built a minimal web app that generates a complete favicon set from a single SVG.

it runs entirely in the browser, has no third-party dependencies (not even the web framework itself), and is fully self-contained in a single downloadable HTML file.

site: https://favicon.mauss.dev

article: https://mauss.dev/posts/svg-to-favicon

source: https://github.com/ignatiusmb/mauss.dev/tree/master/workspac...

the article link is a technical deep dive that i wrote, mostly to document what i learned, but also to make sure i don't forget the experience itself.

i've been using it locally for a couple of weeks, and finally polished it enough to deploy it. there are more features i could add (like cropping non-square SVGs or compressing PNGs), but i wanted to release it before it joins the mountain of unfinished and unreleased side projects at the corner of the room.

feedback or suggestions are very much welcome. a bug report straight on the GitHub repo is also appreciated.
