Description

The port number ( `8080` ) is hard-coded in the `package.json` file. We can't use a Docker container with the `host` network because of port conflicts, and there is no way to change the port of Influx UI.

We need to set a custom port using ENV, config file, CLI, etc.

Research direction

Start with package.json to find where port 8080 is defined and trace the UI startup entry point from there. Compare the available configuration paths mentioned in the issue—environment variable, config file, or CLI option—and identify the project’s existing conventions. Done means the port can be changed without editing package.json and the Docker host-network use case no longer conflicts.
