Solving design problems: The icon creation journey | Shape the Way ep. 1

Welcome to the first episode of Shape the Way! 🚀 This series focuses on the real-world creative journey rather than dry tutorials, showing you how to tackle design challenges, fix mistakes, and use clever workflow tricks to get things done. In this video, we build a custom Firefox extension icon from scratch, covering everything from manual path editing and alignment hacks to using the XML Editor for precise adjustments and sharp exports. ⚠️ Technical Note: I messed up the framing, so the right side of the UI is cut off. My apologies – it's already fixed for the next one!
