This document describes things you can do after successfully installing Iceshrimp.

Automatic translation

Create a Free or Pro API account on DeepL's website

To add custom CSS for all users, edit custom/assets/instance.css.
To add static assets (such as images for the splash screen), place them in the custom/assets/ directory. They'll then be available on https://example.com/static-assets/filename.ext.
To add custom locales, place them in the custom/locales/ directory. If you name your custom locale the same as an existing locale, it will overwrite it. If you give it a unique name, it will be added to the list. Also make sure that the first part of the filename matches the locale you're basing it on. (Example: en-FOO.yml)
To add custom error images, place them in the custom/assets/badges directory, replacing the files already there.
To add custom sounds, place only mp3 files in the custom/assets/sounds directory.
To update custom assets without rebuilding, just run yarn run gulp.

Run UPDATE "user" SET "isAdmin" = true WHERE id='999999';, where 999999 is the copied ID of that user
Restart your Iceshrimp server
