Badgy is a command line tool that creates variants of your icon by adding badge overlays.
- ✅ Small (square) and long (rectangular) labels
- ✅ Position it on
top, left, bottom, right, topLeft, topRight, bottomLeft, bottomRight, center - ✅ Supports rotation (long badge only)
- ✅ Converts your icon to different sizes already
This tool is NOT meant to create production ready icons. As I see myself constantly using at least 4 variants of the same application for B2B customers (think of 1 environment for DEV, QA, UAT, PROD and more), I quickly created this tool to differentiate the application icon for those variants.
There are many things that might not work as you expect, and there are many others that you wish this could do. Feel free to contribute to the project and make it better.
