github.com/JackMordaunt/icns (go): Package icns implements an encoder for Apple's `.icns` file format. Reference: "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apple_Icon_Image_format".  icns files allow for high resolution icons to make your apps look sexy. The most common ways to generate icns files are 1. use `iconutil` which is a Mac native cli utility, or 2. use tools that wrap `ImageMagick` which adds a large dependency to your project for such a simple use case.  With this library you can use pure Go to create icns files from any source image, given that you can decode it into an `image.Image`, without any heavyweight dependencies or subprocessing required. You can also use this library to create icns files on windows and linux.  A small CLI app `icnsify` is provided to allow you to create icns files using this library from the command line. It supports piping, which is something `iconutil` does not do, making it substantially easier to wrap.  Note: All icons within the icns are sized for high dpi retina screens, using the appropriate icns OSTypes.
