Hi all,

On my backlog is a thought about having a different web icon for UIBUILDER documentation and a UIBUILDER app. At the moment, they are both the same and I personally find this confusing if/when I have many tabs open.

This is the current icon:

So I am putting out a request to the community - can we get some ideas? Could be something completely new, or even a new set of icons. Or could be based on the current icon.

I'm hoping someone (or people) out there are more visually creative than I am. 😃

I quite like the red with white lines Node-red editor favicon.

Your blue version seems appropriate but it might be improved with sharper edges and higher contrast.

But for heaven's sake don't emulate the dreadful favicon recently adopted by an alternative dashboard offering!

Well as it is the ui BUILDER i really think you need to lean into the builder component of it and have a picture of a brickie building a wall as the icon !

Any maybe a picture of a library for the documentation - go old school !
