Hello,
I am new to Discourse and would like to know: to what extent can the UI for Discourse be customized?
Thank you

Anything you can do with CSS/JavaScript is fair game and all you need to know is CSS/JavaScript. You can also insert some HTML into the header/footers
Or if you need something more complicated and you understand Ruby/Ember, everything else is fair game.
So in summary, you can do just about whatever you want, you are only limited by the knowledge you have in the above technologies.
