Fun Facts

The favicon was introduced by Internet Explorer 5 in March 1999, originally requiring a file named favicon.ico in the site's root directory.
Modern browsers support favicons up to 512x512 pixels for PWA icons, a massive increase from the original 16x16 pixel ICO format.
The ICO file format can contain multiple image sizes in a single file, which is why favicon.ico files are often 10-50KB despite being tiny images.
