## Using with reverse proxy

When using the Nginx Reverse proxy config from the [Jellyfin docs](https://jellyfin.org/docs/general/networking/nginx.html) the theme might not work by default. (If you are using the subpath config, you can ignore all this.)

Because the config includes Content-Security-Policy which reduces risk of XSS, you need to add the URL from the skin repo and the fonts to the list of allowed external sources.

For example to use Kaleidochromic you need to do [this](https://github.com/CTalvio/Kaleidochromic/blob/main/README.md#using-with-reverse-proxy)
