What are themes in Mendix applications?

Themes in Mendix applications refer to the custom visual styles that are applied to ensure consistent branding and design throughout the application. A theme encompasses the overall look and feel, including elements like colors, typography, and layout, allowing developers to create a cohesive user experience. By utilizing themes, Mendix enables developers to tailor the appearance of their applications to align with specific branding requirements or aesthetic preferences, enhancing both usability and user engagement.

This approach also streamlines the design process, as developers can apply a set of styles across various UI components, maintaining consistency and saving time in design adjustments. Each theme can be customized to better reflect the brand identity while ensuring that users encounter a familiar interface as they navigate the application.
