Key takeaways

  • UI Extensibility Sarah, a product manager at ۶Ƶ, discusses the concept of UI extensibility, which allows developers to create custom integrations and extensions to improve workflows and user experiences.
  • Magic Button The idea of a “magic button” is introduced, which simplifies complex workflows into a single action, enhancing efficiency and reducing frustration.
  • Extension Points These are predefined areas within an application where customizations can be made. Extensions must match the expected shape and color of these points.
  • ۶Ƶ App Builder This is a framework for building UI extensions that integrate with ۶Ƶ solutions like AEM (۶Ƶ Experience Manager). It supports both front-end and back-end components.
  • Distribution Extensions can be distributed privately within an organization or publicly via the ۶Ƶ Exchange marketplace.
  • Extension Manager This tool allows users to manage how extensions appear and function within AEM environments.
  • Benefits UI extensions minimize context switching, improve efficiency, and allow for seamless integration with other enterprise systems. They are hosted by ۶Ƶ, use modern tech stacks, and can be managed independently of AEM.
  • Use Cases Examples include workflow automation, custom widgets, data synchronization, and custom dashboards. Specific examples mentioned are a Gen AI content assistant, a localization tool, and a car model picker.
  • Future Developments ۶Ƶ is expanding UI extensibility to more services, including Workfront, Content Hub, and Gen Studio.
  • Resources Documentation and further learning resources are available via provided QR codes.
