Queries related to "UI Customization" in Appian

I have a few queries related to customizing the user interface in Appian, specifically for enhancing the end-user experience.

  1. Does Appian provide flexibility to create custom UI widgets, if required, to build an intuitive user interface for the end user?
  2. Is it possible to integrate custom HTML, CSS, and JavaScript code into Appian’s latest version and extend the UI functionality beyond the pre-built widgets and patterns provided by Appian's SAIL UI framework?

Thankyou in Advance!.

Yes it is possible - there is a UI SDK that allows you to do this.

https://docs.appian.com/suite/help/24.4/ui-sdk-overview.html

There are also many components already available in the App Market that you can take a look at.

    Thanks for response,  I wanted to know if this feature is available for use in Appian Community Edition, like on community edition

    can we create the custom component and connected system plugins ?

    In addition to what [mention:f5e81b8502fa4e77ad12697686a4fc56:e9ed411860ed4f2ba0265705b8793d05] wrote, following this customization route makes you leaving the joy of low-code and back into the troubles of having to develop and maintain your own code, and all the attached libraries.

      Agreed. 

      And for what it's worth, I've never had to develop a custom UI component for any of my projects.
