Using a different CSS without breaking open the n8n container

Questions
1

We are using the embedded licence of n8n and containers for hosting.

As we are embedding we want to fit it with the look of our other products by adjusting the CSS

We also to not want to have to recreate the container everytime there is a new release as we’d like to keep it “factory sealed” (so for example to simplify things in a support situation)

Is there a variable of whatever that will tell n8n to use an external CSS or set of customisations?

I have seen people talk elsewhere of using a reverse proxy to inject an alternative css but that sounds a little hack-y, we want to keep n8n as “vanilla” and untampered-with as possible

Could you use Google Tag Manager and inject a custom stylesheet?

sure, there are a few ways to put a “shim” between the app server and the what the end-user receives but if we were using the metaphor of gaming in the 1990’s, “containers” are meant to be as “plug and play” as gaming with a console, not having all the messing about you had to do to get a PC game working.
