A favicon (favorite icon) is a small, 16x16 pixel icon that appears in browser tabs, bookmarks, and address bars. It helps users identify your website visually among their open tabs.
Different devices and platforms use different favicon sizes. Modern browsers may use 32x32 or 64x64 pixel icons for high-resolution displays, while mobile devices might need even larger sizes.
