Description

The current Express.js icon blends into the background in GitHub’s dark mode, making it barely visible. We can enhance the existing code for the icon by adding a light background (e.g., white/gray) or styling it so that it remains clear in both light and dark themes.

Describe the solution you'd like

  • Replace the current icon with a version optimized for both themes (e.g., white variant for dark mode).
  • Use an SVG logo and dynamically adjust its fill color depending on the theme.
