Adding Favicons to Jekyll Part 2
OK we made an icon we like, edited it, compressed it. It’s web ready and time to add, but we aren’t using a flat html page. These are generated by the Jekyll builder. Easy enough to just hardcode a tag and path, force it in. But is that what we want? Lets try and fit it in more seamlessly so we improve the process for next time.
Adding Favicons to Jekyll Part 1
Quick project here to add favicons to my Github Pages Jekyll. I never know what to make as an icon so end up putting it off or copying icons from somewhere else. Which is fine until you see all the fails in your server logs. Or go to build a progressive web app, or the worst has gotta be a chrome extension manifest v2+. If you know you know.
Page Dependencies Bookmarklet Javascript
For a currently loaded page, show the script and style references as full path as a table overlaid above the page.

“Historically, accessing the global object has required different syntax in different JavaScript environments. On the web you can use window, self, or frames - but in Web Workers only self will work. In Node.js none of these work, and you must instead use global.
Stay tuned and thanks for reading.
