How to Customize the Nylas Scheduler with CSS Shadow Parts
Blog post from Nylas
The Nylas Scheduler v3 introduces enhanced customization options for web application user experiences through the use of CSS Shadow Parts, allowing developers to align third-party components with their product brand. CSS Shadow Parts enable targeted styling of specific HTML elements within a Shadow DOM, ensuring isolated styling that does not affect other components. The Nylas Scheduler can operate in two modes: app mode, which requires minimal configuration with all components visible, and composable mode, which allows developers to arrange components as desired. Users can customize various aspects of the Scheduler, such as calendars and forms, by utilizing the ::part pseudo-element selector in CSS. Specific examples include modifying the font size of date picker dates, emphasizing the current date, and underlining the current month. This approach allows for seamless integration of scheduling workflows into applications, enhancing the overall user experience.
