BeeOS Phase 6 Notes

Completed in this phase

Phase 6 integrates the uploaded Lucide icon asset pack into BeeOS.

New files:

beeos/assets/icons/lucide/
beeos/assets/icons/lucide/manifest.json
beeos/core/icon_manager.py

Why curated icons?

The uploaded Lucide pack contains more than 1,700 SVG icons. BeeOS should not ship the entire set on-watch.

Phase 6 extracts a curated watch-sized subset for:

Clock
Health
HiveStore
Settings
Scripts
Resource Monitor
Developer Tools
GPS
Battery
Notifications
About
Bluetooth
Display
Watch Faces
Themes
Plugins
Permissions
Runtime
Install/remove actions
HiveStore package types

Simulator limitation

Tkinter does not natively render full SVG path data. The simulator now has a lightweight asset-aware icon renderer and glyph fallbacks.

For real BeeOS/LVGL, the SVG files should be converted to a format LVGL can render efficiently.

Next possible phase

Phase 7 should probably add an asset conversion tool:

tools/convert_icons_for_lvgl.py

Possible outputs:

PNG previews
monochrome PBM/bitmap icons
LVGL C image descriptors
BeeOS compact JSON draw commands

Icon-render fix

The original Phase 6 build included SVG assets, but the simulator still displayed fallback glyphs because Tkinter cannot draw Lucide path-based SVGs directly.

This fixed build adds pre-rendered PNGs and uses them for app icons.
