If you ever find yourself needing to display a small icon for a 3rd party URL but don't want to have to crawl the site to pull out the favicon URL then you can make use of a Google CDN:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
https://s2.googleusercontent.com/s2/favicons?domain_url=https://marcusnoble.co.uk/
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Example: 
|
|
|
|
You can even provide any page, not just the root URL.
|
|
|
|
e.g. `https://s2.googleusercontent.com/s2/favicons?domain_url=https://marcusnoble.co.uk/2020-11-10-t-i-l-how-to-get-the-favicon-of-any-site/`
