Theme

A theme defines the visual appearance of an application, including font size and type, colors of UI controls or background images. It can be applied to an application to suit the purpose, topic, or tastes of different users.

Custom theme

A custom theme is a new theme adapted from a standard theme of Neptune DXP - Open Edition. It includes changes desired by a customer, the changed parameters are stored in the custom theme.

Since custom themes only store the custom changes, future updates to the base themes will propagate to the custom theme parameters that have not been changed.
