   Hi,
   I guess this is related to some modifications of UI files (Images, JS, etc.).
   I also find it very inconvenient to  modify look and feel to ones individual needs - especially addressing the OpenSource community.
   
   As I'm using docker I ended up creating a complete dedicated dockerfile for my own customizations as the old one was kind of ... suboptimal. In the latest release I recognized a lot of work around the docker images, which is great and cleaned up a lot.
   
   But still: Can someone elaborate which is the GOTO solution to change a UI asset in a docker production scenario?  
   
   - fork, add files, build from scratch
   - use e.g. docker, add npm (to prod!?), add the files to  image (hack dockerfile?), npm compile  
   - use e.g. docker, add npm (to prod!?), add the files using volumes
   
   It would be great to have something like a modification folder that's picked up and merged (overwrites only the added files).  This would allow in most cases to stick with release images - which you can't in the other cases (or I simply found not the right way of doing it out of the box). 
   
   Thanks!
