Frequently Asked Questions about app-icon-generator

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I generate macOS and iOS app icons using a Swift script?▼

To generate app icons, you run a self-contained Swift script that uses CoreGraphics to create three 1024x1024 icon variants. The script outputs these images to an icon-variants directory and automatically generates the Contents.json file needed for your asset catalog.

Can I automatically update my Xcode asset catalog with generated app icons?▼

Yes, generating app icons automatically updates the Xcode asset catalog. The Swift script produces production-ready sizes for macOS and iOS integration and creates the Contents.json file required to map those assets correctly within the catalog.

Do I need external dependencies to create Apple HIG-compliant app icons?▼

No, you do not need external dependencies to create Apple HIG-compliant app icons. The skill uses a self-contained Swift script leveraging CoreGraphics to apply design presets and generate the required icon sizes without relying on third-party libraries.

What is the best way to automate app icon creation for iOS and macOS projects?▼

The best way to automate app icon creation is running a Swift script that generates three 1024x1024 design variants. It automatically writes the production-ready sizes to an icon-variants folder and builds the Contents.json file for direct asset catalog integration.

Does the app icon generation script support custom design inputs?▼

Yes, the app icon generation script supports quick-start customization via design inputs. It processes these inputs through CoreGraphics to produce standardized, production-quality icon assets that comply with Apple HIG presets for your macOS and iOS apps.

Why are my generated app icons output at 1024x1024?▼

Generated app icons are output at 1024x1024 because this is the master resolution required by Apple. The Swift script creates three 1024x1024 variants, which serve as the source for deriving all other production-ready sizes needed for macOS and iOS integration.
