  pwa: {
    themeColor: "#130f40",
    msTileColor: "#130f40",
    name: "My app",
    manifestOptions: {

          sizes: "150x150",
          type: "image/png",
        },
      ],

  },
};

⚠️

When generating assets from a png file, the generator creates a black and white svg for the safari-pinned-tab.svg icon, some manual modifications may be necessary.

I hope this will be useful as it is for me! ♥
