In which file the design of the web app is stored ? We could not find the file to change the style in login page of the app.

Hi @Sandip_Parajuli , CHT allows certain brandings like changing favicon, logo, title without needing to modify the source code. You can do so by creating `branding.json` file in your app folder and then defining your icon, logo, title.

[Here](https://docs.communityhealthtoolkit.org/apps/reference/resources/#branding) is the documentation on how to do so. Please remember to upload your branding using `cht --local upload-branding` if your are testing it locally, or passing URL detail in place of `--local`.

Yes we could do it but how do we change the width: 14.2em;  
height: 3.8em; that’s been set in the app. and also the background color of the login page.

I’d like to know this also. Is there a way to change the styling on the elements of pages in the app?

Hi @Sandip_Parajuli , @BrianGacheru ,

This is not supported directly like other brandings. But if you are deploying from source code / docker and want to play around with source code and are interested to explore on your own, please use this [css](https://github.com/medic/cht-core/blob/master/api/src/public/login/style.css) to make your desired changes and see if it works for you. And this is the [login page](https://github.com/medic/cht-core/blob/master/api/src/templates/login/index.html) template.

Please remember that, this is not the recommended, and your changes may be overwritten if you upgrade your instance. Alternatively, you can create a feature request on cht-core [here](https://github.com/medic/cht-core/issues/new?assignees=&labels=Type%3A+Feature&template=feature_request.md&title=) for the options you want to be configurable.
