`HASHTOPOLIS_CUSTOM_THEMES_DIR` is the on/off switch: it names the folder the container scans for `.css` files on startup. When it is unset, no custom themes are loaded and the app uses the built-in `light`/`dark` themes only.

To enable themes with Docker Compose, set the variable to the container path the entrypoint should scan and mount your `.css` folder to that same path by uncommenting both lines in `docker-compose.yml` (or `.devcontainer/docker-compose.yml`):
To enable themes with Docker Compose, set the variable to the container path the entrypoint should scan and mount your `.css` folder to that same path by adding both lines in the fronted section of your `docker-compose.yml` (or `.devcontainer/docker-compose.yml`):

```yaml
environment:

HASHTOPOLIS_CUSTOM_THEMES_DIR: /custom-themes
volumes:
- ./custom-themes:/custom-themes:ro

environment:
HASHTOPOLIS_CUSTOM_THEMES_DIR: ./custom-themes

```
volumes:

### Baking themes into the image (no runtime mount) - Only needed if you build the docker images yourself

When building your own production image, pass the `CUSTOM_THEMES_DIR` build arg to copy a folder of `.css` files into the image (the default bakes nothing):
