In this article we would like to show you how to change default favicon in React project.

Quick solution:

Change default favicon file that is located under public/favicon.ico path.

Its path is attached to webpage inside public/index.html file as: 

<link rel="icon" href="%PUBLIC_URL%/favicon.ico" />

Where: %PUBLIC_URL% represents public/ directory in default configuration.

 

Detailed description

To change icon we can select one of the following approaches:

  • Solution 1: replace public/favicon.ico file  to new one *.ico file
    (we can change path also).
     
  • Solution 2: use *.png image file.
    e.g. put example.png file inside public/ folder and attach it inside public/index.html file replacing favicon.ico with example.png in the path.
public/index.html file with example.png used as new favicon.
public/index.html file with example.png used as new favicon.

Note: Here you can find useful article descrbing how to convert images to a proper size.
