Datapack Icons is a fancy, minecraft-styled icon theme, designed specifically for datapack & resourcepack devs. Looking through Microsoft's behavior packs documentation, we took inspiration from those icons, and decided to implement them in VS Code.

Namespace icons are no longer unused! The extension will find any folders directly within data and assets folders and assign an ender chest icon to the names of these folders, but only if there's pack.mcmeta in the same directory. That also means that if there will be a folder in any location with the same name as one of the namespace folders in the same workspace, that folder will also recieve ender chest icon, so this feature can be turned off in the settings.
Extension will look for pack.mcmeta in the workspace, and if it finds it, changes the icon theme from current to dp-icons. If not, the theme will change to a default one - either it will be the theme workspace was launched with, or defined in the settings.
tick and load functions icons will change their icons to repeating and impulse command blocks accordingly, based on the values provided in tick.json and load.json files found in the workspace. This feature can be toggled to assign the icons not by the tick.json and load.json files, but by the functions names, which can be specified in the settings.
If you don't like these arrows near the folder icons, you can hide them by enabling this setting!
- Chest can contain things, such as
folder - Shulker represents that
datapack can be carried between the worlds - Advancement icon for
advancements - Chat bubble for
chat_type - Sword can deal damage that is associated with red color, that's why it's for
damage_type - You can go in the nether portal to go to the other
dimension - End portal and nether portal lead to different dimensions, so they represent
dimension_type functionscontain commands, such as command blocks- An iconic item, such as a diamond pickaxe, can represent
item_modifiers - You can get some valuable loot from
loot_tables, such as an emerald - Observer checks things,
predicatescan also check for something - We use
recipesin the crafting table - Name tag can represent
tags - diamond armor with a redstone trim is for
trim_material - diamond armor with a neutral color trim is for
trim_pattern - When we think of a minecraft world, we usually think of lots of grass blocks, so it represents
worldgen tick functionsrun every tick, as well as repeating command blocks- Next to repeating command blocks, we usually put chain command blocks, such as
normal functionsthat are usually run by tick functions - Impulse command block runs the command only one time after we activate it, like a
load function, which we activate with /reload - Structure block represents
structure files - Curly brackets are basically essential in
.jsonfiles - Lines of text represent
.txt pack.mcmetais used like a document for datapacks and resourcepacks to be used by minecraft, so it has shulker icon on it- Ender chest is like a space storage, so it can represent the
namespace
- Cyan shulker represents
assetsthe same way as thedataicon, the color is cyan because of this atlasesare associated with maps that are associated with compasses- Waterlogged fence shows a lot of
blockstates - Letter F for
font - Planet can represent lots of
languages - Blockbench default cube is a start of
models - Happy villager particle for
particles - RGB triangle is often a beginner task for
shaders,.glsldevs - Note block makes
soundsthat in resourcepacks and other places can be.oggor.mp3files - There are some
textson the paper! - Brushes draw the
textures - Painting contains an image, as well as
.pngand other image file formats - Note on a paper represents
sounds.jsonas some sort of sound configuration file - Highlighted vertices on a triangle represent
Vertex SHaderfiles - RGB pixel represents
Fragment SHaderfiles
Most of the programming icons don't need an explanation, but there are a few exceptions:
- We write something on paper scrolls, as well as in
most of the file formats Markdownfiles usually contain some information, and letter i usually represents info- Key, that can lock something valuable, represents
LICENSEfiles databasefiles can be represented by a bookshelf because it contains a lot of information- Redstone block activates things, like an
executable - oak
log:P - Nautilus
shellfor shell and console files - Warped chest for
srcfolder because it's the closest color to green
We are FuncFusion - a small team of three:
SuperAnt_ - Came up with the initial idea, made the extension
bth123 - Made all the icons and illustrations, also made a sublime port of this extension
amandin - Coded most of the dynamic icons features, included this extension in his amazing extension collection
Enjoy!
