[Feature Request] SteamgridDB/Custom icons support for game view

[TheRealDanini]

I have a few of my game icons replaced in steam and I would like to use those with the wayvr dashboard. It doesn't seem that wayvr currently has a way of getting custom icons as far as I am aware so I am opening this issue.

Steam games library list does not fetch any icons, but the game covers which are downloaded from the internet. You can create your own .desktop files in the application list though, KDE has a built-in editor for example. Make sure to press "Refresh" button in the application list afterwards.

Oh perhaps I should rephrase then, I am talking specifically about the game covers in the games tab of wayvr.

Using steamgriddb you can replace the game covers that are shown within the steam client with community made covers because some of the stock covers on some titles can look bland. Some applications such as cartridges also make use of steamgridbd for non steam games as well.

We are currently developing a new GUI toolkit from scratch, aiming to eliminate WebKit rendering (and hopefully resolve nvidia issues). I plan to completely replace the frontend with a Vulkan-rendered one, I'll keep that issue in mind after we finish everything.
