Hello,
I have an http endpoint, with a template node that display some html/javascript/css.
I would like to add a local css file and an image.
Something like that :
This seems like a simple thing to do but I cannot find a solution. I need to upload my css (or image) file into the server, but where? Thanks!

From a beginners guide to tweak your settings.js:
> **Static Content**
>
> This is important when using images in your flows or using node-red to serve web pages
>
> uncomment and edit the line httpStatic as shown below:
>
> httpStatic: ‘/home/pi/.node-red/staticContent/’,...
Then create the folder
> staticContent
and place in your css- and image-file
The assets addresses are your server host plus path

As a more feature-rich alternative, you may want to look at the uibuilder node. It lets you manage your front end code either from within node-red or from an IDE such as VScode. It also provides a messaging interface, management of front-end libraries and more.
It would let you manage your html and css in the same place.
