Abstract
A method includes receiving, by a library instrumented into an application executable by a computing device, a message indicating modification(s) that should be performed to user interface component(s) able to be rendered by the application on a display of the computing device. The user interface component(s) are modified to create modified user interface component(s). The modified user interface component(s) are caused to be rendered on the display. Another method includes accessing a description of user interface component(s) for an application executable on a computing device, wherein the user interface component(s) are able to be rendered by the application on a display of the computing device. A developer is allowed to modify information concerning the user interface component(s). Message(s) are formed to allow modification(s) and corresponding user interface component(s) to be determined and the message(s) are sent to computing device(s) having the application. Apparatus, software, and computer program products are disclosed.
