Abstract

Embodiments provide techniques for creating an adaptive user interface for an electronic device. In one embodiment the instructions configure one or more processors to perform operations including displaying, in an application development environment, a user interface of a graphical representation of the electronic device, the graphical representation associated with one or more configurations, each configuration including a set of properties; while displaying the graphical representation of the electronic device, receiving a value for a first property; in response to receiving the value for a first property, determining that the graphical representation of the electronic device is associated with a first configuration; creating a first sub-configuration of the first configuration, the first sub-configuration inheriting one or more properties in the set of properties from the first configuration; applying the value for the first property to the first sub-configuration; and updating the user interface of the graphical representation of the electronic device.
