An app icon and splash screen (launch image) are important parts of any app, yet making them used to be incredibly tedious. You needed numerous icons for iOS and Android, and then you had to deal with splash screens and all their different sizes.
To save you the stress of dealing with all that, ionic enables you to generate app icons and splash screens via the Ionic CLI.
With the ionic CLI, all you need is a resource directory and two images. These images can be .png files, Photoshop .psd files, or Illustrator .ai files, named icon.png and splash.png.
With the images in a resources directory, ./resources, the ionic resources command will generate the icons and splash screen images for each platform setup in the project, sending them to Ionic's image resizing and cropping server, so you don't have to install extra dependencies.
If you only need to update one of the resources, or you only want to generate icons and not both, the ionic resources command has two flags that allow you to target each asset, instead of generating both.
If you want to implement new layouts I would highly recommend you to first search within to check if there’s one that fit your needs.
