Branding Configs

See the ENV Variables page for more info on specific variables mentioned below.

Note: if you've previously deployed and are updating your BlockScout version with new assets, be sure to remove static assets from the previous build (use mix phx.digest.cleanor manually delete assets located in apps/block_scout_web/priv/static folder) before updating current files and restarting/rebuilding BlockScout.

In order to rebuild new front-end assets run the following. Note: If preferred, use npm ci rather than npm install to strictly follow all package versions in package-lock.json
