Customize folder color

You can change the color of the default folder icon using the command palette:

custom folder colors

or via user settings:

"material-icon-theme.folders.color": "#ef5350",

Folder themes

You can change the design of the folder icons using the command palette:

folder themes

or via user settings:

"material-icon-theme.folders.theme": "specific"

Custom icon opacity

You can set a custom opacity for the icons:

"material-icon-theme.opacity": 0.5

Custom icon saturation

If colors do not make you happy you can change the icons to have less saturation making them look grayish or completely grayscale by setting saturation to 0:

"material-icon-theme.saturation": 0.5

Custom icon associations

You can customize the icon associations directly in the user settings.

File associations

With the *.[extension] pattern you can define custom file icon associations. For example you could define an icon for *.sample and every file that ends with .sample will have the defined icon. Use **.[extension] with two asterisks to apply the file association also for the filenames ending with that file extension.

If there's no leading * it will be automatically configured as filename and not as file extension.

"material-icon-theme.files.associations": {
    "*.ts": "typescript",
    "fileName.ts": "angular"
}

Custom SVG icons

It's possible to add custom icons by adding a path to an SVG file which is located relative to the extension's dist folder. For example a custom SVG file called "sample.svg" can be placed in an icons folder next to VS Code's extensions folder:

.vscode
 ┣ extensions
 ┗ icons
   ┗ sample.svg

In the settings.json the icon can be associated to a file name or file extension like this:

"material-icon-theme.files.associations": {
    "fileName.ts": "../../../icons/sample"
}

Note: The custom file name must be configured in the settings without the file ending .svg as shown in the example above.

Folder associations

The following configuration can customize the folder icons. It is also possible to overwrite existing associations and create nice combinations. For example you could change the folder theme to "classic" and define icons only for the folder names you like.

"material-icon-theme.folders.associations": {
    "customFolderName": "src",
    "sample": "dist"
}

Language associations

With the following configuration you can customize the language icons. It is also possible to overwrite existing associations.

"material-icon-theme.languages.associations": {
    "languageId": "iconName",
    "json": "json"
}

Available language ids:

https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/languages/identifiers#_known-language-identifiers

You can see the available icon names in the overview above.

One-click activation

After installation or update you can click on the 'Activate'-button to activate the icon theme, if you haven't already. The icons will be visible immediately.
