Hey everyone! I’ve been using n8n for a while now and I’m wondering if there’s a way to change how the workflow interfaces look. I really like the tool, but I think it would be great if we could personalize the appearance a bit. Has anyone tried this before? I’m not sure where to start, so any tips or ideas would be super helpful. Maybe there are some built-in options I’m missing, or do we need to dig into the code? I’d love to hear about your experiences with this. Thanks in advance for any advice you can share!
I’ve been using n8n for about a year now, and I totally get your desire to customize the interface. While there’s no official way to change the look, I found a workaround that might interest you. I created a browser extension that injects custom CSS into the n8n interface. It’s not perfect, but it lets me tweak colors, adjust spacing, and even add some custom icons. The tricky part is keeping it compatible with updates, but it’s been a fun side project. If you’re into coding, it’s worth exploring. Just remember, it’s unofficial and could break with major updates. Alternatively, you could suggest interface customization as a feature request on their GitHub. The devs are pretty responsive to user feedback.
hey john, i feel ya on wanting to change the look. sadly, n8n doesn’t have built-in options for that. but here’s a trick - you could use a browser extension like Stylus to inject custom CSS. it’s not perfect, but lets you tweak colors and stuff. just be careful not to break functionality. good luck with ur customization journey!
I’ve actually looked into this recently. Unfortunately, n8n doesn’t offer built-in customization options for the workflow interface appearance. The UI is pretty standardized across installations. That said, if you’re comfortable with web development, you could potentially modify the frontend code to adjust colors, layouts, etc. But be aware this would require maintaining those changes across updates. Alternatively, some users have created custom CSS overlays to tweak the look, though this can be finicky. Personally, I’ve found it’s generally easier to stick with the default UI for consistency and focus on optimizing the workflow functionality instead. The clean interface grows on you over time.
