Favicon with badges - notifications

[lcges]

My suggestion is to exchange early notifications with a new model.
OLD: Favicon + (notification digit) + Title
NEW: Favicon with badges + Title

This way we will save some space.

Suggested library: http://lab.ejci.net/favico.js/

Which file would need to change here?

I can't tell from looking at

gitea/templates/base/head.tmpl

Line 6 in 73382d2

<title>{{if .Title}}{{.Title | RenderEmojiPlain}} - {{end}} {{if .Repository.Name}}{{.Repository.Name}} - {{end}}{{AppName}}</title>

Since we use SVG for the favicon, that could be turned inline (and become dynamic this way).

Should we create a dynamic graph for that?

I don't know Golang enough. Are there libraries to aid with it? Otherwise it will be a bit hairy to write (I could take a stab, but not for the upcoming release).

https://css-tricks.com/svg-favicons-and-all-the-fun-things-we-can-do-with-them/ gives you some ideas on what you could do with a SVG favicon.

I mean, the web being the place it is yield to http://www.p01.org/defender_of_the_favicon/ and friends 😆
