The Gateway design template includes a template gateway user interface (UI). that is designed for use by end users of the gateway. OEMs can further customize the template UI to include branding and other hardware specific functionalities.
For a detailed list of all the HTML pages that are included in the Gateway design template, see Gateway User Interface Overview.
OEMs can customize the application using the HTML template and cascading style sheet-based pages.
