White Labeling a TideSDK App

Question

I'm in the process of building out my first TideSDK app by transitioning an existing AIR app and the client would like to white label the app. For the AIR app, we could point the application.xml file to the location of brand-specific HTML, but I don't see an obvious way to do that with tiapp.xml. Is it there and I'm just missing it?

In this case, white labeling mostly means a logo change and perhaps a few colors, so it's hardly anything intensive. What's the best way to do something like this using TideSDK?

Answer 1

TideSDK is no different than any web app for branding. CSS is used to style your HTML. Any default CSS you have in your base app may be overridden for branding of course.

Beyond the HTML, the native UI is controlled by the OS, and you have only the icon to be concerned with and replacing the default artwork (with your own branding) in the native installer we provide.

If you need to change the icon name, which is not a necessity, do this in the tiapp.xml and manifest. Just replace the image with one of your own. The same applies to the installer art.

Answer 2

U can modify the logo with the attribute image in manifest file:

#image:default_app_logo.png

change to

#image:my_logo.png
