Implementing app settings

[pacosta]

I am trying to implement a ctrlX app that needs some configuration settings. As far as I can tell this is done by defining an appropriate entry in `menus.settings` in the `package-manifest.json` file, which includes the definition of an HTTP endpoint that needs to be implemented in the app. The documentation shows a few code snippets and mentions an `angular.json` file.

Are my assumptions correct? If so, is there a recommended framework to use to implement the app endpoints? If so, are there any example implementations? If not, are there any CSS stylesheets to have a consistent UI matching the ctrlX CORE UI?

Thank you!

In general please have a look to the documentation of the SDK for ctrlX AUTOMATION. There you find information about all examples and the tool chain.

The easiest way would be to provide some nodes to the Data Layer where your settings can be inserted. See this example in the SDK how to do so.

One other way would be like you described. See this example in the SDK how to do so.
