#21128

Description of the Change

I replaced the older default icon for Atom with the Big Sur-style icon for Atom for Macs only. Windows icons is still the same.

Alternate Designs

  • Keeping the icon as is: it would fail to fit within the Apple icon design for Big Sur.
  • Replacing all icons: there has not been any major icon overhaul on Windows that necessitate an icon change for Windows too.
  • Separating the icon based on what macOS version the user is using: there isn't an implementation of this in Electron.

Possible Drawbacks

  • Mac users using macOS Catalina and below will see the Big Sur-esque icon instead of the OS X Yosemite-esque icon.

Verification Process

The verification process is not needed, as this is just an icon swap with the same file extension (between the icon being replaced and replacement icon).

Release Notes

The app icon on macOS has been changed to reflect the style in macOS Big Sur.

This looks really good. I would be glad if you could also add icons for nightly and beta versions of Atom.

Is there a reason for deleting beta/atom.icns

Screen Shot 2021-05-12 at 10 09 45 AM It was not deleted--I think that because I changed the beta icon to look more like the Big Sur icons, the file size became smaller. Refer to the screenshot of my local git of Atom that have already been pushed to my remote.
