I'm using icons from github repo that is updated, how would you store it?
Hi, I'm allowing users to choose their techstack, I have the techstack from https://github.com/gilbarbara/logos
How would you store them? As a file or would you insert it into database, what if the data changes, would you have some script to update the database?
I'm leaning forward a simple file that is cached, but would love hear a second opinion on this

I would store in a file - same way I store other assets.
Personally I'd prefer to update manually whenever required. Unless it's security, I want to be in full control.
If you do want update, you can setup a simple script to update the file once a month or so..
WOuld you store it in db as array of strings? something like:
user_techstack: [react,typescript]
unless you need hundreds, I'd store it as a static file in your repo and access it like any other static file from your app
