Module 7: Style Form
Customization is only useful if it survives. Once users start shaping the look of a generated app, those choices need to exist as real data, not just as temporary UI state.
That is what this lesson is about. Style settings become first-class business data: something that can be stored locally, synchronized with the server, and reapplied later. That is the right abstraction for a builder product because appearance is part of the product definition, not just a visual side effect of the current screen.
The important architectural move here is turning style changes into structured objects rather than scattered theme tweaks. Once styles are represented as data, the rest of the system can reason about them the same way it reasons about titles, dishes, prices, or other editable entities.
This also connects back to the earlier product decisions about temporary versus committed edits. A user can experiment locally, but once they confirm the changes, those changes need to be durable. That durability is what makes the builder trustworthy across sessions and eventually across devices or server sync.
So the final lesson in this style-customization block is straightforward but important: styling in a builder is not just presentation logic. It is part of the editable domain model.
