To set a favicon icon in HTML, you can follow these steps:

1. Create or find an image that you want to use as a favicon icon. The recommended size for favicon icons is 16x16 pixels or 32x32 pixels.
2. Save the image with a suitable file format like .ico, .png, or .gif. Ensure that the image file is named "favicon" for consistency.
3. Place the favicon icon image file in the root directory of your website. This is typically the same directory where you have your index.html file.
4. In the head section of your HTML document, add the following line of code within the opening and closing tags:

If your favicon image file has a different extension or location, make sure to update the href attribute accordingly.

1. Save your HTML file and reload your website. The favicon icon should now be visible in the browser tab or bookmarks bar. Please note that it may take some time for the browser to display the favicon icon after it has been set.

Additionally, you can also provide alternate favicon sizes for different devices and resolutions by using the <link> tag with different rel attributes like apple-touch-icon and icon. This allows the browser to select the appropriate icon for each specific device.
