I prefer the more simple monochromatic approach used by Simple Icons [1] but that can be too restrictive at times and many icons do not translate to that style. You can still use their brand guidelines and license metadata to avoid infringing copyright.

Where it it getting the data from? Is it possible to download a subset of that dataset offline, so that I can keep swiping and learn new "fancy words" when I'm not with an Internet connection.

I'm currently using Bruno, which uses its own format "Bru Lang" for storing HTTP requests as plain text[1]. The VS Code extension is great but I'd much prefer the standard backed by 30k+ stars was extended instead of a new format to introduce fragmentation in this space.
I had been looking for something like this in the past. I have previously set up a full-fledged Django application only to use its ORM, but then I realised that it's quite helpful to have the possibility to expand the project into a proper web app or an API, if needed. The Django admin interface is also great!

Good: This website is well designed. The feature-set is limited but it's more than enough for most folks. The UI is also pleasant.
Bad: The currency set is restrictive. Two of the currencies I work with are missing. I suppose it would be a small addition to support any currency code (it's just a prefix for the most part) or symbol (like ₹ for INR).
Opinion: Personally I would prefer a CLI tool that would that would take a template and a table to create many invoices in bulk, but this still a good option.

While you've specifically labeled this as "personal use", it is a commendable project that introduces some interesting new ideas. I might steal some ideas from it for my own `ls` alternative, `pls`[1].

Tbh, i dont understand why people want to rewrite ls of all things.
Like don't get me wrong, if they had fun, that's great.
But all i use ls for is getting a list of files. I barely ever even use the -la options. There just doesn't seem like a lot of room for improvement in something so simple.
Hi, author of `pls`[1] here. I started `pls` as a hobby project to scratch a personal itch: a "prettier" alternative to `ls`, with more colors and customisable icons. I also wanted to learn Rust as a secondary motivation.
But as I added more and more features to it, it has become a good tool that does a number of things that `ls` doesn't do (unless you chain it with other tools like `sort` or `grep`) and even other `ls` replacements don't do.
So even though `ls` is fantastic as-is, it's always fun to build something of your own, add a little more polish in areas that matter to you and put it out there to see if it resonates with more people.
