About Application Types
Learn about application types.
Oracle APEX includes four Application Types: Standard , Theme , Library , and Boilerplate. Each type of application has a different purpose:
-
Standard - The default application type, suitable for most general purpose applications.
-
Theme - Contains a theme definition that defines the visual style of an application through theme assets such as styles, templates, and template components.
-
Library - Contains reusable shared components such as authentication schemes and lists of values (LOVs) that can be subscribed to by standard applications.
-
Boilerplate - Provides seeded shared component subscriptions and pre-built pages designed to accelerate the creation of new applications.
The default Application Type is Standard. You can change the Application Type by editing the Application Definition and changing the Properties , Application Type attribute.
