UI Custom themes

Ziggo Theme

Let me kick it off with a theme I have created for Ziggo, a Dutch cable operator. We use OpenUI5 to manage the back-end of the IP-video platform in the operations department. The UI gives us quick insights devices statusses and allows us to quickly troubleshoot and resolve issues.

The theme is essentially a rebrand from blue to orange and uses the Roboto webfont by Google as it's main font, to make the interface a bit more snazzy and aligned with other systems. Charts were made using Google's Material Barcharts. Apart from that, just tiny, hardly visible tweaks were carried out.

At the time the theme was created, the theme designer wasn't really working properly yet, so that theme has been made using css hacks.

Apologies, can't share the CSS sources.

Qualiture theme


This is a theme I created for my public facing website http://www.qualiture.nl/ created with OpenUI5

The site itself is not real fancy since it is a simple Master/Detail application, with inline (static) JSON model data -- so no dynamic OData or other backend connectivity.

I created two custom controls:

  • The testimonials block, to be responsive the way I wanted -- FlexBoxes of Grids did not cut it here
  • For rendering Markdown content. Using a custom Markdown control gave me two major benefits while authoring content:
    • It is easy to type in and store in a JSONModel
    • I have complete freedom of the look and feel of the rendered text. There is currently no (simple) way of rendering mixed markup in sap.m, and I did not want to use the rather rigid sap.ui.commons FormattedTextView.

The overall theme was heavily modified, to cater for the gradient masterlist, rounded icons, modified headers, etc. The font's used are HelveticaNeue, Georgia and Oswald. The social media icon font is 'Socicon'. Inside the CSS there are some @media and min-width queries to adapt some controls to a specific viewport size.

The CSS creation (as well as all the coding) was done using using JetBrains WebStorm
