Folder Icons for Devs: Making My Desktop Less Messy

Publish Date: Jun 13 '23
23 16

I've made a decision to share something that has helped me organize my digital life and make my desktop a lot cleaner. Let me introduce Folder Icons for Devs 🎉

Let's face it - as developers, our desktops can quickly become a chaotic mess of files, folders, and icons. It's like a jungle out there. So because I've got just the solution!

I created these icons for myself to make my desktop less messy, but then I realized that they could benefit other developers too. So, why not share them? 💙

To get these icons, simply visit the website. Furthermore I would love to hear your ideas and suggestions for additional icons. If you feel there's something that deserves its very own unique icon, please please don't hesitate to get in touch with me.

Download Folder Icons, and let's make our coding journey a little bit more colorful and fun!

Happy coding everyone!💻👨‍💻👩‍💻

    Very cute! I like to customise my desktop icons, I saw someone made their folders look like a field of cows ... yours are much more helpful!

    That's actually quite interesting, it could be a perfect combination with my app dirorganizer.com, I wrote it to sort files into folders. As you can make your own rules for which extensions belong to which group. You could easily use it for that as well!

      I'm glad you find the folder icons interesting.:)
      Your app looks very useful for sorting files. I'll check it out.
      Thanks for sharing!

    have you tried putting the icon in the middle of the folder to make it look bigger?
    and you could separate them in folders (ex. languages, frameworks, tools, utilities
    ,..)

      I actually tried putting the icon in the middle, but it didn't look good and aesthetic :)
      And regarding organizing the icons into separate folders, you're absolutely right, but users can easily organize them into folders based on their needs.

      I appreciate your feedback and if you have more ideas, feel free to share. Thank you!
