Dashboard Documentation (README): Instructions on customizing the Launcher icon

[joewiz]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

On the e-editiones Slack community channel, @arojascastro asked:

do you know how to change the logo that appears in the eXist Launcher?

I responded:

To change the launcher’s logo, edit https://github.com/eXist-db/dashboard/blob/master/existdb-dashboard.html#L149.

@djbpitt suggested that this should be documented:

For what it’s worth: When I needed, a couple of years ago, to change the logo in the dashboard) for an app I was developing, I couldn’t find information about how to do that in the eXist-db documentation. I finally figured it out by copying someone else’s code (thanks, Joe!), but if it’s still missing from the documentation, it would be a small but welcome addition.

Describe the solution you'd like

Perhaps the README should contain a note about this as part of a new "Customizing Dashboard" section?

Describe alternatives you've considered

This could go into the eXist documentation, but there's no existing article to hang this small piece of information on. The README might be best.

Additional context

I misunderstood the original question - it was about app icons, not the eXist logo for the Launcher page. I'll open a new issue.

I think this is a viable use case. I would like to reopen this issue.
