browserconfig.xml is a metadata file designed to support the tile feature on the Windows Start screen. It allows customization of tile elements such as images, background colors, and text colors. When a website is pinned to the Windows Start screen as a tile, the appearance of the tile, including its background and colors, can be customized according to this XML file.

Example

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<browserconfig>
  <msapplication>
    <tile>
      <square70x70logo src="/smalltile.png"/>
      <square150x150logo src="/mediumtile.png"/>
      <wide310x150logo src="/widetile.png"/>
      <square310x310logo src="/largetile.png"/>
      <TileColor>#ffffff</TileColor>
    </tile>
  </msapplication>
</browserconfig>
