Key Points

The UX Framework in the Fluent platform automatically checks for configured manifests in Account settings. If none exist, the Fluent web app defaults to loading using baseline manifests within the platform, ensuring a seamless and standardized user experience.
To customize the main web app manifest or specific fragments, users should follow the naming convention, with the setting name for the main web app manifest file.
It is recommended to override the main manifest only when adding or removing fragments; otherwise, users can efficiently modify specific fragments by overriding them individually.

Steps

General Information

By default, the UX Framework will check if any manifests are configured in the Account settings. The Fluent web app will be loaded using the baseline manifests within the platform if no settings exist.The setting name for the main web app manifest file should match the following convention:`fc.mystique.manifest.<web-app-name>`

Note

You should only override the main web app manifest if you are adding or removing fragments from the web app. Otherwise, you can override the fragment you’d like to modify.

Fragment manifest names are not enforced; however, they typically use the following convention:`fc.mystique.manifest.<web-app-name>.fragment.<fragment-name>`Should you wish to customize any part of the default Fluent web app, you can override the relevant manifest by copying the base manifest fragment into an account setting.To access the baseline manifests, see the tables below:Fluent Order Management

Editing Manifest documents

Using a text editor that provides JSON syntax highlighting and validation is recommended to modify the JSON values before saving them in an Account setting.Some suggested editors / IDEs include:

Sublime Text
Visual Studio Code
IntelliJ

Saving the manifests to your account

Manifest documents should be stored as a JSON Setting in the Account context. Settings can be created and updated in either of the following ways:

Manually via the Fluent Big Inventory app (Admin section)
via the GraphQL Settings API

An example setting:

Field	Sample Value
Name	`fc.mystique.manifest.inventory.fragment.inventory`
Type	JSON
JSON Value	`{ ... <YOUR MANIFEST JSON HERE> ... }`
Context	ACCOUNT
Context ID	0

When loading the web app in the browser, the UX Framework identifies if there are any referenced manifest settings on the account. It overrides the baseline manifests to load your tailored configuration.

Adding new fragments to your web app

You can also add entirely new fragments to your web app. To do this, you must override the main web app manifest and add a new reference route to the manifest setting.Read more about configuring Reference Routes here.

Configuring Workflows

To get to market quickly, you can use the Fluent platform's pre-built workflows or support your business processes by configuring workflows and custom rules with the Rules SDK.

Note

Get familiar with the Getting Started guide.

The Workflow Engine (aka Rubix) is the engine that drives the Fluent platform. The Workflow Engine enables business process orchestration and workflow automation, underpinning each Fluent app's specific feature sets and functionality. The Workflow Engine is also built to be highly scalable and provide high-performance workflow execution across any domain. If you would like more details, you can see How it Works.
