Customizing the experience to match your brand is simpler in V2
Instead of having isolated configuration options per screen or component, V2 uses a unified token-based system that allows developers to control visuals, behaviors, and experience patterns with fewer parameters and predictable outcomes.
This means:
- Less engineering work to override UI elements
- Consistent branding across modules
- Predictable behavior when changing settings
- Reduced risk of breaking flows
- Clear separation between visual tokens and experience configuration
V2 also centralizes all customization options under a single structure, so developers always know where to look and what they can modify.
