Known weaknesses

Each one links to the public issue, changelog or docs page it came from, where we have one.

1. 01

   Limited support for advanced icon customization

   Mobicon primarily focuses on resizing and format conversion, lacking options for detailed design adjustments such as shadows or effects.

2. 02

   Poor documentation for complex use cases

   The official documentation lacks examples for integrating Mobicon into CI/CD pipelines or handling edge cases like non-standard icon sizes.

3. 03

   Performance issues with large input files
