Jenkins provides the flexibility to customize its appearance through the utilization of themes. This can be accomplished by installing a plugin dedicated to theme management.
To integrate a theme into Jenkins:
- Access the plugins page and input “theme” into the filter box. Select the Simple Theme Plugin and proceed with installation. This plugin empowers users to apply various themes to their Jenkins interface.
- Themes can be sourced through simple online searches. Given that Jenkins operates as a web-based application, themes typically consist of a CSS file and, optionally, a JavaScript file.
- To install a theme, navigate to Configure System and navigate to the Themes section. Input the URLs for both the CSS and JS files corresponding to the desired theme. For instance, in this demonstration, we’ve opted for https://github.com/jenkins-contrib-themes/jenkins-neo-theme by Afonso F.
- Click save to implement the changes, and the updated interface of Jenkins will be immediately visible.
