Layouts

Layouts for your screens

PreviousScreensNextComponents

Last updated 3 years ago

Budibase uses layouts that wrap your screens. This is where you put components that you want to display across different screens. Basically a shortcut for you, so you don't have to re-build the same thing over and over.

All Budibase applications start off with two Layouts: Navigation and Empty. On the right-hand side you can see all the options that are available to you. The difference between the two starting layouts is that the navigation is turned off in the Emptylayout. Other options you will find here is the Links, where you can configure the navigation links, text options and some other goodies.
