Allow for personalized branding? #288

Closed ofersadan85 closed 9 months ago

I don't know what the maintainers may think about this, but will it be possible to allow for some custom branding?

Sure, I can fork and replace this line

But I would much rather have it supported officially 😃 or even better, make it customizable through environment variables.

If you approve of this, I'd be happy to create the PR for this myself... let me know

What's the use case for that?

What's the use case for that?

In my case, I have a lot of self hosted services that we use internally in my company. For most of these I've applied some uniform branding and/or css tweaks, to keep a somewhat consistent UI style.

If I'm alone in this, I could probably do that for myself, but I've noticed some other services offer a built-in way of supporting that (organizr, filebrowser, etc.) so I thought I'd ask first

So far you're alone in this :) I think the way to go for now is to do it yourself. This is a small hobby project that I'm trying to complicate as little as possible (with mixed success).. So custom branding feels really far out. I'm glad you find it useful though.

@alexta69 In that case, I'll just let you know that this is my favorite self hosted app 😄 it's simple and yet it always works! Thanks for the great work
