Styling your application Learn about the themes and out-of-box tools that can help you visually customize your application. CSS helper classes Rather than creating a new skin format, apply standard, predefined Cascading Style Sheet (CSS) helper classes to make a minor formatting change to a cell or dynamic layout. Using CSS helper classes saves development time, reduces maintenance by limiting the number of customized skin formats, and improves the consistency of the look and feel of your application. By avoiding the introduction of unnecessary static content, you also improve the initial loading time of your application. Skins, Interfaces, & Templates landing page The Skins, Interfaces, & Templates landing page displays all the available skin rules for the current application. The landing page also shows portals in use by the current and built-on applications, their associated skins, and the access groups and operators that use them. You can open skins and portals from this page. Skin rules Use the skin to specify the presentation of your content. You can style all presentation elements of your interface in the skin, including typography, borders, backgrounds, layouts, and UI placement and alignment. By defining presentation attributes in the skin, you separate the content that is defined in sections and harnesses from its presentation. This ensures greater consistency and promotes reuse. Updating the UI Kit in your application Ensure that your application includes a modern, responsive, and consistent UI by updating the out-of-the-box UI Kit layer in your application stack.
