fargo 1a822493ba format: apply repo prettier (3.8.1) to the folded skills tree
963 markdown files reformatted with the repository's pinned prettier so
pnpm format:check covers the folded tree like every other repo file.

The formatter's embedded-language pass also normalized code fences
(TS semicolons, closed HTML tags in examples, lowercased CSS hex colors,
one renumbered list that skipped an index). Alphanumeric token deltas vs
the fold commit were audited file-by-file; all are formatter-equivalent
markup normalizations plus the four sanitized skills.

useFavicon

Reactive favicon

Usage

import { useFavicon } from '@vueuse/core';

const icon = useFavicon();

icon.value = 'dark.png'; // change current icon

Passing a source ref

You can pass a ref to it, changes from of the source ref will be reflected to your favicon automatically.

import { useFavicon, usePreferredDark } from '@vueuse/core';
import { computed } from 'vue';

const isDark = usePreferredDark();
const favicon = computed(() => (isDark.value ? 'dark.png' : 'light.png'));

useFavicon(favicon);

When a source ref is passed, the return ref will be identical to the source ref

import { useFavicon } from '@vueuse/core';
// ---cut---
const source = shallowRef('icon.png');
const icon = useFavicon(source);

console.log(icon === source); // true
