  2. Customisation

Customisation

The APEx Project Environments are designed to adapt to the unique needs of each project. Except for the User Workspace and IDE service, which are offered as a combined package, all other services can be requested and instantiated independently. This modular approach allows projects to select only the tools that align with their specific requirements. Each service is accessible via a public URL, enabling seamless integration into existing project components.

In addition to the flexibility of service selection, each service can be customised to reflect the project’s branding and aesthetics. The degree of customisation depends on the capabilities of the underlying software, typically focusing on general visual elements such as logos and colour schemes.

Currently, customisation is performed during the instantiation process in close collaboration with the project team. As the APEx project evolves, additional mechanisms to streamline and enhance service customisation will be explored. For projects requiring more detailed adjustments, APEx will provide access to the software’s technical documentation, empowering teams to further tailor the services to their needs.
