Let’s Get Graphical!
In this chapter, we will build on our high-level understanding of the built-in widgets by learning how to make them look pretty. A slick and well-styled user interface not only enhances the clarity of the app’s functionality but also elevates the user experience, increasing the likelihood of users wanting to continue its use.
There are many ways to add styling to existing widgets and to use new widgets that we haven’t seen yet, which can give us great default styling.
