How to Update GitHub Topic Icon and Description
GitHub has Topics. For example, when you search for “Azure” on GitHub it displays the Azure topic:
And when you click on “See topic” you can view the details of that topic:
Azure recently rebranded with a new icon, which Jeff Wilcox and I already updated for the Azure org: https://github.com/azure
But, we couldn’t figure out how to update the Azure topic icon. I pinged a bunch of people and my GitHub contacts didn’t know either. So, I emailed GitHub support and they informed me that the Topic icons and text are located in this repo:
https://github.com/github/explore
And that the Azure icon is here:
https://github.com/github/explore/tree/main/topics/azure
And the description text is in the same directory.
So, I submitted a PR to get it updated:
https://github.com/github/explore/pull/2469
Which should hopefully be merged soon.
Hope this helps you figure out how to update a GitHub topic icon or text.
